Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This turnkey brick duplex includes two separate units: a lower unit and an upper unit, each offering two bedrooms and one bathroom. Updates completed in 2026 refreshed the interiors throughout, creating a near-new presentation for either occupancy or rental use. Each unit features a modern kitchen with new soft-close cabinetry and new appliances scheduled to be put in at closing. Living areas include bright, naturally lit spaces with high ceilings, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and new lighting.

The property includes a shared basement with substantial additional space, described as approximately 1,075 square feet. It is also noted to have audio/video on the property. The units are positioned a short distance from major highways and within reach of schools, shopping, and parks, supporting everyday convenience for residents.

Each unit has its own laundry room with washer and dryer included as part of the closing. With both bathrooms fully renovated and new flooring and lighting throughout, the duplex is well-suited for buyers seeking a turnkey residential income property with consistent finishes across both units.

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
$12,299
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
8.79%
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.
