Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This sale presents an absolute triple-net (NNN) leased drug store property with Walgreens Corporation as the investment-grade tenant. The lease runs until March 31, 2031. The offering also contemplates alternative development paths, including the option for the owner to consider a build-to-suit, and the ability to subdivide the building for multiple new tenants. The property is being sold “as-is,” with a negotiated tenant finish allowance referenced in the terms.

Located on Central Avenue SE in Albuquerque, the property is described as less than one mile from the I-40 freeway, with reported traffic of 60,306 cars per day. The remarks also note adjacency to multiple established retailers including Starbucks, Church's, Chili's, Taco Cabana, Jack-in-the-Box, Burger King, O'Reilly Auto Parts, Dutch Bros. Coffee, and Freddy's Frozen Custard. Nearby big-box retailers mentioned include Costco and Home Depot, along with Target, Sam's Club, Walmart Supercenter, Petco, Best Buy, and others. The remarks further cite a mixed-use high intensity zoning designation of MX-H.

For buyers, the core fit is a long-term absolute NNN income stream backed by Walgreens through the stated lease end date. For operators or developers, the noted willingness to consider build-to-suit work and the possibility to subdivide the building and pursue redevelopment provide a practical pathway for future tenant diversification, depending on timing and execution of the owner’s terms.

Key Highlights

  • Absolute Triple‑Net (NNN) lease with Walgreens Corporation through March 31, 2031
  • Investment‑grade tenant with owner flexibility to consider a build‑to‑suit arrangement
  • Potential for redevelopment and/or subdividing the building for multiple new tenants

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
$280,466
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
6.23%
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.
