We have no verdict for this one at our defaults.

[Run your own numbers on any building →](/calculator/)

Your numbers are not available on this record yet.

## Why we rejected it

-   Multi-unit strategy (3 verified units, the listing description) has no comparable rents in our research per our published methodology, and no per-unit or aggregate rent figure is stated anywhere in our listing feed or our own verified listing record (the listing text markets 'abundant rent' with no dollar amount). Cannot price without fabricating a figure the methodology forbids inventing.

Rejected at the first-pass screen.

Unit count verified: 3 units, corroborated by the listing itself.

## What we could not verify

-   Asking price: we don't have one.
-   The verdict: we never had enough on this property to run the numbers, so there is nothing here to set against the S&P, and nothing to re-run with your own figures.

 Members on a paid plan can request verification.
