Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The multifamily asset at 1318 Avenue A, South Houston, TX 77587, constructed in 2020, offers a modern residential opportunity with strong in-place occupancy. The property has a 97% occupancy rate and is undergoing ongoing interior upgrades. Recent operational improvements have led to a significant rise in monthly NOI over the past six months, following the owner's assumption of management responsibilities. This transition included the removal of underperforming tenants and improved leasing quality, demonstrating operational stabilization and an improved tenant profile without sacrificing occupancy. A flooring upgrade program is currently underway, converting units to vinyl flooring upon tenant turnover, with 6 units converted thus far. This phased approach modernizes interiors, enhances durability, and supports continued rent growth with minimal operational disruption. Seller financing is available, offering flexible acquisition structuring and potential interest rate advantages relative to conventional financing. The property size is 38930 square feet.

Key Highlights

  • High Occupancy: 97% occupancy rate
  • Seller Financing: Flexible acquisition structuring available
  • Improving NOI: Net Operating Income has significantly increased

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
$258,107
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
5.61%
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.
