Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This commercial land holding includes several existing improvements: a large office building, a smaller office, a mechanic shop, a home, and a garage. The improvements total over 7,000 sq ft, with the mechanic shop and garage at 121 Pecos measuring 2,500 sq ft. The property was built in 1980 and may support continued use of the existing structures or future redevelopment.

The assemblage includes 30,000 sq. ft. zoned C-2 (General Commercial) with 170' of frontage on Crows Landing Road, along with 21,415 sq. ft. and 85,000 sq. ... ft. zoned R-1 (Residential). The 21,415 sq. ft. area is currently used as C-2 under a legal, non-conforming use, while the larger R-1 portion extends to S 7th St. A lot line adjustment and rezoning could create a rectangular lot of 3/4 ac. +. Planning staff would support a rezoning and land use amendment to C-2.

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
$117,810
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
6.93%
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.
