Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This fully renovated, turnkey 5-unit apartment building offers four 1-bedroom units and one efficiency unit. The property is constructed as a solid brick building and has been extensively improved within the past 3 years, including new drywall, electrical, plumbing, windows, roof, gutters, and updated interior finishes. Each unit is equipped with its own furnace, along with central A/C units. Kitchens have been remodeled with updated appliances, and bathrooms feature marble and tile finishes. Exterior and building systems upgrades include brickwork maintained in excellent condition, and the property includes two sump pumps for added protection. A basement efficiency unit is included with two separate entrances/exits. One unit is intentionally vacant to support easy showings and immediate leasing.

The asset is located at 1589 Summit Road in Cincinnati, OH 45237. Tenants pay all utilities except water, which helps keep operating costs more predictable. A basement efficiency configuration with two exits can also support tenant convenience and access.

For prospective owners or operators, this property presents a turnkey multifamily option with recent capital improvements and a unit available for prompt leasing. The four 1-bedroom units combined with an efficiency layout provide mix-and-match flexibility for occupancy planning, while the tenant-paid utilities structure supports more controlled expenses. Taxes are currently reported under $6k annually.

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
$20,789
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
5.20%
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.
