Executive Summary
Nestled in the heart of Oelwein, Iowa, Otter Creek Cottages presents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-maintained, 57-unit multifamily community in a stable, underserved market. Built in 1977 and spread across 15 single-story buildings on 5.74 acres, the property offers a mix of 56 one-bedroom and 1 two-bedroom cottage-style units, each with private patios and access to lush green space. Residents enjoy a true community feel enhanced by a clubhouse with gathering areas, laundry facilities, and event space.
The current ownership has completed substantial capital improvements including new flooring, appliances, HVAC systems, and landscaping upgrades.
