The Proano Commercial Group is proud to present a 6-building, 77-unit multifamily portfolio in Urbana, IL, offering a compelling value-add opportunity in a stable and growing rental market. Located along Mitchem Drive and Vawter Avenue, the portfolio features a diverse unit mix, including sixteen 1-bed/1-bath units, forty-two 2-bed/1-bath units, eleven 3-bed/1-bath units, and eight 4-bed/2-bath units. Each building is separately metered, with tenants responsible for their own water and electric utilities—supported by electric furnaces and electric stoves in every unit.
