The Ritz is a 6-unit multifamily property built in 1920 and located in the heart of downtown Olathe, KS, offered at $630,000. The property is currently 5 of 6 units occupied, with in-place rents on the 2 bed/1 bath units ranging from $725 to $950, indicating room to push rents to market level. The owner currently absorbs all water/sewer and trash expenses without tenant billback in place, giving a new owner two clear, low-lift value-add levers: raise in-place rents to market and implement a RUBS utility billback program. The property sits in a walkable, historic pocket of downtown Olathe that is in the midst of a well-funded revitalization, a new Downtown Olathe Library, the Johnson County Courthouse, Johnson County Square Park, and the County Square Commons dining and entertainment district (opening late 2026/early 2027) have all landed within the immediate area since 2021, alongside recurring draws like Fourth Fridays, the Garmin Marathon, and the Johnson County Old Settlers celebration. Central Elementary School sits just a few blocks away on E Cedar St, and the property borders a community garden, both strong pulls for the family and long-term renter demand this unit mix is built for.
