Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This classic brick end-unit multifamily duplex includes two separate 1BR/1BA residences with independently metered utilities. Each unit features a spacious living room with abundant natural light, hardwood floors, and a flexible rear bonus room that can accommodate a home office, den, or additional living space. Stackable washer-dryers are in both units. The property is being sold with one unit vacant and the other currently occupied, giving buyers flexibility in managing occupancy and interior updates.

Set on a corner lot on a quiet, tree-lined street, the home is positioned for convenient neighborhood access, with retail and dining options, parks, and Metro located just minutes away as described in the listing remarks. The end-unit layout and corner placement are also expected to support strong daylighting and curb appeal.

The opportunity is well suited for buyers looking to renovate and refresh the interior. The owner has completed DC’s newly revised TOPA exemption notices related to the transfer and sale, and the property is marketed with a clear path to closing so buyers can move forward promptly. Showings require 24-hour notice.

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
$23,830
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
3.53%
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.
