Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This for-sale multifamily assemblage includes two adjoining apartment buildings at 220–222 and 224–226 Summit Avenue, forming a cohesive residential complex. The combined portfolio totals 20 units across one-bedroom, one-bath apartments and studio units. A detached three-bay garage structure is located at the rear, providing an additional income component. The buildings are two- and three-story brick and masonry structures constructed in the early 1900s.
The property sits on a combined urban parcel with frontage along Summit Avenue and Hood Street in downtown Hagerstown. The City of Hagerstown zoning is Residential Medium Density, which supports the existing multifamily use. The improvements include substantial recent capital work such as basement waterproofing with commercial grade dehumidification, plumbing and electrical upgrades, updated water service, fire escape replacement and repairs, new flooring and interior painting, common area improvements, remodeled units, and new PTAC heating and cooling units.
With streamlined ownership across the contiguous multifamily footprint, the configuration offers a practical mix of studio and one-bedroom units alongside dedicated garage space for rental revenue.

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
$66,632
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
3.37%
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.
