Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This historic flex building was built in 1914 and includes both showroom and warehouse functions. The building is just under 15,000 square feet, with approximately 8,000 sq. ft. dedicated to the showroom. Large windows provide natural light and street visibility. Interior layout includes front counter space, high ceilings, multiple entrances, and a floorplan with five separate offices. There are four bathrooms plus a break or conference room, an IT room, a copier or office supply room, and several storage rooms.
The heated warehouse includes an overhead door and street access, and it can also serve as private parking. The property is located on a corner of 2nd St. S. and 2nd Ave. South, inside the Downtown Parking District, supporting convenient parking access for customers and visitors.
Significant upgrades were completed in 2008, including new plumbing, electrical, roof, HVAC, and windows. The building also includes public water service. A portion of the property (207) could operate as a separate business with its own entrance, bathroom, office space, kitchenette, and storage. An adjacent warehouse is listed for sale separately at 215 2nd Ave. So., approximately 26,000 square feet.

Financial Insights
Estimated NOI and Cap Rate
NOI = area × lease_rate × (100 − vacancy) / 100 × (1 − expense_ratio). Net Operating Income — what the owner takes home each year before mortgage payments and income tax. Effective rent (asking rent minus vacancy losses) minus operating costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, management).
NOI / Yr
$164,147
Cap rate = NOI / list price × 100. Capitalization rate — annual return on a fully cash purchase, before financing. NOI divided by price. Higher means more income per dollar invested, but usually also more risk or older condition. 5–8% is typical for stabilized commercial property; double digits often signal distressed deals.
Cap Rate
7.30%
Suggested Prices Based on Cap Rates
Cap rates vary significantly by property type, market, and asset quality.
Typical U.S. stable-market ranges:
Multifamily — 4.5% to 6.5% (Class A in primary markets often sub-5%; Class C in secondary markets 6%+)
Industrial / Logistics — 5.0% to 7.0% (compressed heavily in recent years due to e-commerce demand)
Office — 6.5% to 9%+ (wide spread post-2020; CBD Class A vs. suburban Class B varies dramatically)
Retail — 5.5% to 8.5% (grocery-anchored on the low end, unanchored strip centers higher)
Hospitality / Hotels — 7.5% to 10%+ (higher due to operational risk)
Self-Storage — 5.5% to 7.5%
Medical Office — 6.0% to 7.5%
Net Lease (single tenant, credit) — 5.0% to 7.0% depending on tenant credit and lease term
Rules of thumb:
Primary markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, DC) trade at lower cap rates than secondary/tertiary markets, often by 100–200 bps (bps, aka basis points; 1 bp = 0.01%).
Class A assets trade ~50–150 bps tighter than Class B, and Class B tighter than Class C.
Cap rates move inversely with price — a lower cap rate means a higher price for the same NOI.
Spread to the 10-year Treasury is a common benchmark; historically 200–400 bps over the 10-year.
