Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 23,584 square foot retail center is anchored by Planet Fitness and UPMC Central Pennsylvania Surgical Associates. Located in Carlisle, PA, within the Walnut Bottom Towne Center, the property sits adjacent to a 128,000 square foot U-Haul Rental Retail & Self Storage Center. The location is along the Interstate I-81 highway corridor. Planet Fitness, occupying approximately 18,000 square feet, recently exercised a five-year lease extension through late 2027. UPMC Central Pennsylvania Surgical Associates also executed a new five-year lease. The property is a condo pad unit within Walnut Bottom Towne Center. The site is one of three "Catalyst Sites" in the Township's Walnut Bottom Corridor Master Plan, which aims to create a pedestrian-friendly "Vibrant Town Center" by 2030. The current Walnut Bottom Towne Center is expected to add additional pad site development to revitalize the retail and amenities in the area. A 41-acre mixed-use development known as Cambria Place is located directly across Walnut Bottom Road. Preliminary land development plans, approved in Q3 2021, propose 396 new residential units, including 60 townhomes and 336 apartment units within seven buildings, plus a clubhouse. Additionally, a 126-acre development site immediately to the southwest is proposed as a walkable neighborhood with diverse housing options, parklets, sidewalks, new office and retail uses, and trails. The property is located near the UPMC Pinnacle Hospital Campus. Planet Fitness has occupied the property since 2009, and its national franchisee operates 105 clubs in multiple states. UPMC executed a new four-year lease that commences Q2 2023 and has annual rent increases.

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
$239,679
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
6.49%
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.
