Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The Townhomes at Cannon Mills, located at 1422 Nottingham Dr., Kannapolis, NC, is a 24-unit townhome community situated on approximately 2.22 acres. The property consists of two-story units with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, each featuring front and back porches, located in a quiet residential neighborhood just outside of Downtown Kannapolis. The property offers durable in-place cash flow with a clear path to additional revenue through continued rent optimization toward prevailing submarket levels, including the opportunity to further modernize remaining interiors with upgraded finishes to support premium rent positioning. A recent capital improvement program of approximately $500,000 materially reduces near-term CapEx and supports long-term performance, including an exterior overhaul (painted brick, metal awnings, shutters, upgraded lighting, gutters), new concrete patios and railings, new windows, upgraded electrical panels, utility optimization, a new asphalt parking lot with wheel bumpers, and targeted HVAC replacements. These improvements enhance curb appeal, operating efficiency, and durability. Kannapolis has emerged as a growth market anchored by the 350-acre North Carolina Research Campus, along with expanding healthcare and advanced manufacturing. The asset is located approximately 2.5 miles from Downtown Kannapolis, less than 5 miles from Atrium Health Cabarrus, and offers convenient access to I-85. It is approximately 25 miles to Uptown Charlotte, providing strong regional demand drivers with a favorable cost-of-living profile. The property size is 21816 square feet. For investors, Townhomes at Cannon Mills combines suburban stability with Charlotte-metro connectivity. It is an upgraded, well-located, income-producing asset positioned for continued performance in a market benefiting from sustained population and income growth.

Key Highlights

  • Recently completed ±$500,000 capital improvement program enhances curb appeal, operating efficiency, and durability.
  • Durable in‑place cash flow with opportunity for additional revenue through rent optimization and interior upgrades.
  • Located in Kannapolis, a growth market anchored by the North Carolina Research Campus, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing.

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
$230,809
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
6.37%
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.
