Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1915, this 2,040-square-foot triplex contains three one-bedroom, one-bath apartments, with one residence occupying each floor. The units share the same general arrangement, placing the living room toward the front, the kitchen centrally, and the bedroom and bathroom toward the rear. The first-floor apartment includes a large backyard, while the basement provides storage and laundry access for that unit. All three apartments are occupied by long-term tenants, and each unit requires updating.

The property is located at 1428 S 10th Street in Philadelphia’s Passyunk Square, directly across from Acme and CVS. East Passyunk Avenue’s dining and shopping corridor, the Singing Fountain at 11th and Tasker, the 9th Street Italian Market, and Columbus Square Park are within walking distance. The Broad Street Line and bus routes provide access to Center City.

The existing three-unit layout can be maintained while improvements are completed by floor, or the building can be reconfigured as a single-family residence, subject to applicable requirements.

Key Highlights

  • Three one‑bedroom, one‑bath units with one apartment on each floor
  • 2,040 SF triplex built in 1915
  • First‑floor unit includes a large backyard

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
$34,812
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
6.63%
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.
