Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 5-unit brick townhome property was built in 1989 and is arranged across two stories. The offering totals 4,368 square feet and sits on 0.55 acres within Clarksville city limits. Major capital improvements were completed in 2025, including a full HVAC replacement in November 2025 and a water heater replacement in May 2025, along with appliance upgrades, plumbing fixture updates, and cosmetic rehab during a four-unit turnover cycle.

All five units are currently occupied at seller-confirmed market rents of $825 to $900 per month. Four of the five units signed new 12-month leases in 2025 following the rehab work. The property is located in Zone X (low flood risk) and is zoned R-4 Multi-Family Residential.

Professional management is in place through PMI Clarksville, and fiber internet is available from three providers: AT&T, CDE Lightband, and Spectrum. The 2025 financials reflect one-time capital expenditure tied to the rehab and turnovers.

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
$35,229
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
5.87%
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.
