Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This two-family property is laid out as a front unit with three bedrooms, one bathroom, and a bonus room in a townhouse-style configuration, plus a second unit featuring a large open layout and a loft-style bedroom with one bathroom. The site includes a small yard and off-street parking for at least four vehicles.

Located in downtown Derry, the property is close to restaurants and shopping, the library, Parkland Medical Center, and major commuter routes. The home benefits from a tenant history that includes one unit continuously occupied for nearly 20 years by the same family.

Recent capital improvements include replacement of both heating systems with forced-air furnaces that are less than three years old, along with water heaters for both units replaced within the last three years. Vinyl siding and windows were installed less than five years ago. With primarily cosmetic renovations needed to maximize presentation, the property is well suited for an investor or a future owner-occupant seeking a turn-key residential income asset with deferred maintenance largely addressed.

Key Highlights

  • Two‑family property built in 1915 on a 0.10‑acre lot in downtown Derry
  • Long‑term tenants: one unit continuously occupied for nearly 20 years by the same family
  • Front unit offers 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, plus a bonus room (town‑house style setup)

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
$28,150
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
6.12%
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.
