Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This nine-unit apartment property comprises two adjoining addresses on a single tax parcel at 1734–1736 Second Street. The improvements contain approximately 7,494 square feet on an approximately 6,000-square-foot corner lot. Each residence offers one bedroom and one bath, with layouts averaging approximately 1,000 square feet. Fenced yards, off-street parking, and coin-operated laundry add to the property’s existing features. The asset is 100% occupied and includes conforming HU-RM1 zoning. The five apartments at 1736 achieve approximately 6% higher rents than the four units at 1734 despite identical sizes.

The property is positioned two blocks from Oretha Castle Haley Boulevard in Central City. Nearby destinations include the Southern Food and Beverage Museum, Ashé Cultural Arts Center, Café Reconcile, and Central City BBQ. The St. Charles streetcar, Magazine Street, the Lower Garden District, the Central Business District, the Superdome, and the downtown medical corridor are also close by. The in-place income reflects a 10.0x gross rent multiplier, with coin-operated laundry providing an additional revenue source.

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
$87,221
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
6.98%
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.
