219 WEBSTER Street NE, WASHINGTON, DC 20011

Here is the play: live in one unit, rent the other, and let the building help carry the mortgage. This two-unit brick semi-detached is delivered fully vacant, so a first-time buyer moves in on day one and an investor inherits no leases. Upstairs is the unit the owner lived in, and it shows. A newer kitchen, an updated bath and the best light in the house give it the extra polish of a home someone chose to live in. Downstairs is clean and low-maintenance, with wood-style floors and its own access to the backyard, ready for a tenant the week you close. Both units are one bedroom, one bath and 666 square feet per unit, one per level, with central air throughout. Below, a full basement with separate front and rear entrances, laundry and plenty of storage, the same footprint neighbors on this block have finished into extra living space. Out back, a private yard with room to pull a car in off the alley. Located minutes from the Catholic University campus and Brookland. Two units, zero tenants, one smart move.
