In Under Contract, UrbanTurf looks back at properties it has featured recently that were snatched up by DC’s alert buyers.

Under Contract: 8 Days or Less: Figure 1

A Rental Income Producer in Mount Pleasant

This semi-detached home in Mount Pleasant hit the market during the second week of January and was under contract eight days later. Featured in our What (Around) $1 Million Buys You article, the home is split up into two sections: a three-bedroom home upstairs and a legal two-bedroom, two-bath rental unit downstairs that currently pulls in $2,400 a month. That means the new owners will have lower monthly payments than they would on the usual million-dollar property. The home also has a front porch and a rear deck, with the potential to add parking.

  • Address: 1700 Hobart Street NW (map)
  • Price: $987,000
  • Bedrooms: Five
  • Bathrooms: 4.5
  • Year Built: 1927
  • Days on Market: Eight

Four Bedrooms North of the H Street Corridor

This four-bedroom rowhouse near the intersection of 6th and L Street NE was featured in Best New Listings about ten days ago, and snapped up just five days later. The home’s updated interior preserved many classic details, and buyers may have been drawn to its completely finished basement. A rear patio is landscaped and the property has a parking pad in the alley.

  • Address: 612 L Street NE (map)
  • Price: $749,900
  • Bedrooms: Four
  • Bathrooms: Three full, one half
  • Year Built: 1920
  • Days on Market: Five
