Powderhorn Park Duplex or House? Where Sales Stall
A 1910s duplex with tenants and a TISH report due
You own an older up-and-down duplex with tenants in both units, and a TISH evaluation is needed before the property can be shown.
Why it happens here: Most of the neighborhood went up between 1905 and 1920, duplexes included, and city TISH rules cover duplexes as well as houses.
What we do: Ryan coordinates the evaluation with tenant notice, reviews leases and condition, and makes a rental-property offer that reflects both.
Repairs you don't want to take on
Listing prep can mean TISH items, paint, floors, or a roof. An as-is sale prices the condition instead of asking you to fix it.
Tenants, leases, or belongings inside
Occupied rentals and full houses add notice, access, and cleanout questions to every step.
A date that won't move
A new job, an estate deadline, or the next home sets the calendar. The sale has to fit around it.

Powderhorn Park Homes South of Lake Street
Around the Park, South of Lake Street
The neighborhood takes its name from Powderhorn Park, with its small lake and hilly green space. It sits just south of Lake Street, between roughly Chicago Avenue and Cedar Avenue, inside the larger Powderhorn community.
Blocks around the park have a mix of owner-occupied homes and rentals. For an occupied property, Ryan schedules walkthroughs with proper notice and keeps them brief.
Victorian-Era Houses, Duplexes, and Rentals
Powderhorn Park has older two-story houses, some from the late 1800s, along with bungalows and many a duplex or small rental. Big old houses sometimes carry the marks of past conversions or remodels.
Ryan reviews actual condition first, then occupancy. For rentals, that means leases and license status. For any property, the offer is anchored in comparable sales of similar homes nearby, with adjustments for condition explained in writing. If your duplex is in good shape with strong tenants, he'll tell you whether listing might bring more.
