Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This offering pairs two commercial assets: a ±7,940 SF renovated office/retail building that is currently owner-occupied, and a ±6,429 SF flex/warehouse facility occupied by a long-term tenant under a guaranteed lease. The flex/warehouse lease includes 4% annual escalations, providing income tied to contract terms. The portfolio is presented for acquisition together, with the office/retail building positioned for immediate lease-up and an owner-user or owner-sale/leaseback scenario, depending on the buyer’s approach.
Both properties are located at 11240 and 11242 E Independence Boulevard in Matthews, North Carolina, on one of the area’s most heavily used commercial corridors. The offering cites approximately 66,700 vehicles per day along Independence Boulevard, supporting strong visibility and convenient access. Zoning is listed as B-H (ENT-O), which allows for a broad range of office, retail, service, and entertainment uses.
For tenants, the portfolio format can accommodate users seeking either a renovated office/retail layout or a flex/warehouse configuration under established leasing terms. For buyers, the structure supports multiple paths: acquiring the portfolio for contracted income while evaluating lease-up opportunities for the currently owner-occupied office/retail building. The ±7,940 SF building is also described as available for lease, providing flexibility for prospective occupiers.

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
$252,003
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
7.00%
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.
