Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale property features a multi-tenant commercial structure with five office suites, six upper-level storage units, and four ground-level garage bays. One of the garage bays includes accessory office space. In addition, there are two more storage units, creating a mixed configuration designed to support both business and storage needs. The property is located on a 0.1894-acre lot and totals 7,632 square feet.

The building is zoned for Commercial Property use. Most of the existing spaces are currently leased on a month-to-month basis, which may provide near-term flexibility for an owner or operator. The listing also notes city-supported potential for a six-story residential development, with preliminary discussions including parking and residential levels, as well as potential use of nearby dead-end street portions to improve access and circulation.

From an ownership standpoint, the property can fit buyers looking for an income-producing mixed office and storage setup while evaluating longer-range redevelopment planning. Buyers are also asked to cooperate with sellers regarding a 1031 exchange.

Key Highlights

  • Significant development potential with city support for a six‑story residential building.
  • Prime location in Sand City, a dynamic and evolving micro‑market on the Monterey Peninsula.
  • Potential for compelling views from upper‑level units (above the third floor).

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
$107,153
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
5.13%
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.
