Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
An all-metal office building measuring 40' by 24' provides a compact workspace configuration suitable for a range of office uses. The building includes a handicap restroom and a kitchen area for day-to-day convenience. The property is offered in connection with multiple lots, giving an owner flexibility for site planning around the existing improvements.
The site has frontage on State Hwy 35 and is described as a great corner lot, providing direct exposure to a major thoroughfare. Additional land is included with the sale of three lots and the office building. Public remarks also indicate there is one more adjoining lot on 8th Street available for sale should the buyer want additional acreage.
For buyers or owner-users looking for a straightforward office facility on a prominent road, the combination of an all-metal building and highway frontage can support practical operating needs. The included restroom accommodations and kitchen area help the space function independently for small teams, offices, or professional services. The availability of additional adjoining land may also appeal to buyers who want more room to adjust layout and site use around the existing structure.

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
$13,426
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
5.37%
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.
