Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1894, this 9,900-square-foot brick property occupies a 0.12-acre site on Newcastle Street in Downtown Brunswick. The building includes three addresses, with two commercial spaces at street level configured for retail or restaurant use. Architectural plans are in place for six second-floor lofts, with office use also identified as an option.

Substantial structural and exterior work has been completed, including a concrete rear wall, stucco, roof and ceiling-joist replacement, added structural supports, a steel-reinforced facade, and eight custom Pella windows. The original staircase was retained and reinforced, while the front entries were reconstructed using reclaimed heart pine from the upper-floor ceiling joists. Asbestos abatement, a clean Phase I Environmental assessment, and a Shupe Survey have been completed.

The property is next to Silver Bluff Brewery and is located within the Enterprise Zone and Tax Allocation District. It remains eligible for Historic Tax Credits and is near I-95, Jekyll Island, and Saint Simons Island.

Key Highlights

  • 9,900‑square‑foot brick building constructed in 1894

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
$88,209
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
8.06%
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.
