Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

171 Sunset Blvd in Cannon Beach is a mixed-use commercial property designed to support both retail leasing and residential/live-work use. The approximately 10,000 SF asset includes multiple commercial tenant spaces alongside residential/live-work space, totaling about 7,000 SF of commercial area and about 2,300 SF of residential area with vaulted ceilings and skylights. The property is currently configured with three occupied units and three vacant units, and the current ownership is actively undertaking improvements and stabilization work within the vacant spaces and throughout the building.

The property is positioned at a highly visible midtown entrance off Highway 101. It offers approximately 100 feet of retail frontage along Sunset Blvd and includes 28 on-site parking spaces, which can support customer access and daily operations.

With C1 zoning permitting up to 50% residential use, this building provides flexibility for investors, owner-users, or mixed-use operators looking to balance commercial leasing with residential/live-work components. The existing mix of occupied and vacant units may support an operator who wants to continue leasing activity while incorporating the in-progress improvements to stabilize and increase occupancy over time.

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
$167,904
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
5.33%
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.
