Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale triplex is a residential income property configured as three separate dwelling units on a single parcel. The property size is listed at 1,804 square feet, with a total lot size of 0.26 acres. The listing identifies it as a multifamily/residential income asset, which can be suitable for buyers seeking an owner-occupied or income-generating residential setup.

The property is located at 1702 40th Street in Columbus, Georgia 31904, in Muscogee County. For prospective tenants and buyers, the single-address format can simplify property management and unit access compared with scattered multifamily locations.

From a use standpoint, this triplex may appeal to investors evaluating small-balance residential income opportunities, as well as owner-occupants looking to live in one unit while renting the others. The compact footprint and defined parcel support practical ownership and day-to-day handling of the asset. Interested parties should review unit layout and condition details directly with the seller or listing broker, as those specifics are not provided in the available summary.

  • Brick construction
  • Laminate flooring

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
$16,351
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
9.08%
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.
