Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This property combines a residence with a sizable automotive/workshop metal building. The home is attached to an approximately 4,500 square foot (75' x 60') garage/industrial structure with high ceilings and overhead doors sized 10' x 10' and 12' x 12'. A large multi-purpose room between the main house and garage has been used for functions including a music room, party room, church, office, and meeting room, and it includes a raised stage area; seating will remain with the home. There is also an unused bathroom in the garage that would need renovation, though water and sewer hookups are already in place. There are 5 outbuildings totaling about 2,500 square feet, along with extensive fenced corral area.

Commercial zoning has allowed the current owners to operate a full auto repair business. The home is set back more than 350 feet, and the seller describes road noise as minimal due to the distance and low traffic count. The property is about a half-mile north of the intersection of State Highway 94 and Ellicott Highway, with a gas station and convenience store and a Subway located at that intersection; additional shopping is described as roughly 20 miles away.

The home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, with radiant heat supported by propane and a newer boiler plus a newer metal roof. Kitchen and living room areas have fresh flooring, wood windows, and appliances that stay with the property.

  • Garage features high ceilings and 10' x 10' and 12' x 12' overhead doors for automotive or workshop use
  • Commercial zoning supports operation of a full auto repair business (current owners) at the property

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
$49,032
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
3.77%
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.
