Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This two-unit duplex is set up for privacy and operational simplicity, with entirely separate entrances for each apartment. The property includes independent gas and water meters, which can help keep landlord utility costs controlled. The downstairs unit is configured as a 1-bedroom, 1-bath home with forced air heating. The upstairs unit offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, heated by an efficient baseboard boiler.

The duplex sits on a corner lot and is described as offering canal and lift bridge views from the windows. Off-street gravel parking is provided. The area is characterized as bikeable and car-dependent, with a BikeScore of 56 and WalkScore of 47.

For buyers or operators, the separate entrances and independent metering support a practical live-in-and-rent, or fully rented, arrangement. The unit mix also provides flexibility for tenant profiles seeking either a smaller 1-bedroom layout or a larger 2-bedroom layout within the same property. The off-street parking helps round out day-to-day convenience for residents.

Key Highlights

  • 2‑unit multifamily property built in 1860 on a corner lot

  • Independent gas and water meters for each unit

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
$12,366
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
8.24%
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.
