Description
Michel Commercial is pleased to present South Haven Apartments — a well-maintained 36-home apartment
community located in Brainerd, MN. Built in the 1960s, the property consists of three 12-unit buildings featuring
a balanced mix of one- and two-bedroom floor plans. Over the past decade, South Haven has benefited from
substantial property upgrades, including improvements to the exterior, mechanical systems, and common areas,
ensuring long-term durability and continued resident appeal.
Extensive property upgrades—including
new roofs, siding, windows, garage
doors, and mechanical systems—
highlight ongoing ownership investment.
Common areas have also been enhanced
with updated lighting, carpeting, and
exterior improvements, reducing nearterm
capital needs. With its strong
maintenance record and consistent
occupancy, South Haven Apartments
demonstrates stable operations and
long-term durability.
South Haven Apartments is a stable
investment within the Brainerd rental
market, supported by limited new
supply and consistent renter demand.
The property’s solid operations, recent
improvements, and low ongoing
maintenance needs provide dependable
income performance. Its central location
near major highways and employers
further supports long-term stability and
value retention.
Location
South Haven Apartments is centrally
located in Brainerd with convenient
access to Highways 210 and 371,
connecting residents to Baxter, Nisswa,
and the greater Brainerd Lakes Area. The
property’s location also provides easy

south) and the Twin Cities metro area
(125 miles southeast). Nearby employers
such as Essentia Health–Brainerd Clinic,

Residents enjoy proximity to shopping,
parks, and trails, offering a balanced
lifestyle of comfort and connectivity.
