Great opportunity for cash flow on a corner lot triplex or potential development on this 15,033 sqft corner lot! The triplex will need some TLC. It features a diverse unit mix: a 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath unit (#214B), a 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit (#212), and an efficiency/studio with a bathroom (#214A). The 2-bedroom unit was generating $2,200/month, while the 1-bedroom unit could potentially fetch $2,000/month on VRBO or AIRBNB. The studio, due to previous tenant damages, had been successfully rented on VRBO and Airbnb for $2,200/month (Rental Restriction in Clearwater is 30 days minimum rental). Units 214A and 214B share electric and water meters, and unit 212 has separate meters. The main 2-bedroom unit features hardwood floors and a master suite with a walk-in closet. The bonus room, complete with a fireplace, offers a versatile space that can be used as a game room or an office. The properties include central and window A/C units, with the central A/C for unit 214B (2004). The roof was replaced in 2017. Additionally, there is a storage shed/workshop on the vacant lot. For developers, this property is situated in the Downtown Gateway area, where the maximum residential density is 35 units/acre, allowing up to 10 units on this particular lot size. Buyers should confirm all permits, building codes, zoning, and leasing restrictions with the City of Clearwater.

Roam is your trusted partner for affordable home ownership. We help manage the assumption process from start to finish, enabling homebuyers to easily purchase their next home with a low-interest rate mortgage attached.
An assumable mortgage is a type of home loan that allows a homebuyer to take over the existing mortgage terms from the seller, with no cost to the seller. Many government-backed loans, such as FHA and VA loans, are eligible for assumption, and millions of these mortgages are available.
When interest rates on mortgages are high, assuming a mortgage with a rate as low as 2% allows buyers to save up to thousands monthly compared to buying a home with a traditional mortgage at today’s average rates of 7%. A low-rate assumable mortgage could be the key to finding your dream home at an affordable price.
Roam has compiled available listings with low-rate assumable mortgages for you to browse. To get started, enter the city, state, zip code, or school district you’re interested in purchasing in. Utilize the search filters to narrow down your search. Click “Save search” to save your search preferences and activate listing notifications—we’ll email you as soon as new listings match your criteria.
Once you’ve found your dream home and ready to make an offer, schedule a call with a Roam Advisor directly from the listing. Your Roam Advisor will guide you through each step of the process, while also working directly with your agent, the servicer, and the seller to ensure you close on time.
To qualify, you must meet the current FHA, VA, or USDA loan requirements depending on the type of loan you are assuming. This typically means a minimum credit score of 620, although most lenders prefer 620-640. Your debt-to-income ratio should be under the 50% max under FHA guidelines. Additional information such as employment history, explanations of income for each applicant, and asset verification for a down payment may be needed to process the loan.
Roam is committed to and abides by the Fair Housing Act and Equal Opportunity Act.
