Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This single-family residence offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with additional flexible interior space including a bonus room opening directly to the outdoors and an office with built-ins that can serve as a potential fourth bedroom. The home is described as built with sturdy cypress studs, and interior finishes include knotty pine wood paneling under paneling and wallpaper. A major feature of the property is a massive 28x47 workshop, which can provide options for business use or conversion possibilities. Outside, the property includes an enclosed fenced yard with mature fruit trees and a covered patio measuring 24x5.8.

Located in Gretna, the property is positioned near Highway 90 for convenient access toward New Orleans and Metairie. The remarks also note that it is minutes from Home Depot, a shopping center, and a variety of local dining options.

With zoning for both residential and business use, the layout supports a range of practical tenant or owner-operator needs, from traditional home living to operating a business from the workshop or converting space for additional purposes. The indoor-outdoor connection from the bonus room and the presence of a dedicated office area can also support work-from-home or multi-use arrangements.

Key Highlights

  • 3‑bedroom, 2‑bath home with central heating and central A/C; frame construction with tile roof
  • 28x47 workshop offers flexible space for conversion to an apartment or business (per seller remarks)
  • Bonus room opens directly to the outdoors, plus an office with built‑ins

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
$17,440
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
9.18%
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.
