Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This brick building was most recently operated as a hairdresser shop for approximately 40 years and is being sold as-is. The property includes a garage of about 400 square feet with its own separate meter, which may support additional income potential depending on the buyer’s intended use.

The storefront is situated with plenty of parking, and it is located across the street from the Georgia Ports Authority. Prospective buyers should plan for an in-person walkthrough to assess the building’s current condition and the garage’s configuration for their specific needs.

For tenants or owners seeking a small retail or service-oriented location, the property offers a straightforward storefront setup with an attached garage component that could be repurposed within the buyer’s strategy. Because the sale is being conducted “as is,” due diligence should focus on verifying building systems, metering, and overall condition before closing.

Key Highlights

  • Brick storefront previously used as a hairdresser shop for 40 years
  • Includes a 400‑square‑foot garage with its own separate meter and potential for extra income
  • Plenty of on‑site parking

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
$11,125
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
3.18%
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.
