This wording avoids the use of 'apartment/flat' twice in the same sentence. The nature of the investment (i.e. for rent) is explained in the next sentence.

income-producing [income-generating] apartment/flat

Another option would be "income-producing/generating". The choice of "apartment" vs. "flat" would depend on the size/layout of the property and/or linguistic preference (US vs. UK English).
