Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This Palm Springs property presents a rare automotive or industrial opportunity, situated in a desirable location in the heart of Palm Springs, offering logistical access and positioning in one of Coachella Valley’s most attractive and business-friendly cities. The sale includes the H&H Automotive business, along with all equipment and inventory, making it a turnkey opportunity for an owner-user or operator in the automotive or service-industrial space. Ideal for investors, H&H Auto is vacating, opening the door for a full renovation and re-lease strategy. The area’s low industrial vacancy suggests strong leasing demand and rent upside. The asset is priced below replacement cost and market rents, offering room to improve building functionality and achieve higher returns post-upgrade. The 17,859 square foot lot includes a 5,616 square foot primarily block-walled yard, providing secure outdoor storage or workspace. Built in 1974 with a metal tilt up design, two oversized drive-ins (16’W x 20’H), and 12 surface parking stalls, the property supports a variety of industrial and automotive uses under its M-1 zoning.
Key Highlights
- Turnkey automotive business (H&H Automotive) with all equipment and inventory included.
- Desirable Palm Springs location with logistical access (4.5 miles to the airport, close to I‑10).
- Priced below replacement cost and market rents, offering value‑add potential through renovation and re‑leasing.
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
$80,498
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
7.32%
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.
