Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 1921 duplex offers a classic two-unit layout with open floor plans and hardwood floors. The property includes central air and heat in both units, along with natural light and laundry hookups. The home is being sold strictly as-is, with no repairs made by the seller, making it well suited for buyers planning updates and renovations. Flood Zone X is noted for additional assurance.

Located in Uptown New Orleans, the property is described as being just minutes from Tulane University, Audubon Park, and the St. Charles Streetcar, with nearby Uptown amenities. It sits on a lot size identified at approximately 0.1242 acres, providing space for a renovation-focused income strategy or other residential redevelopment goals.

For investors, this duplex provides a straightforward foundation: two units with established interior finishes and core mechanical features already present, plus laundry hookups that can support tenant day-to-day needs after updates. For owner-occupants, the layout can support living in one unit while renovating the other. With the property priced as a fixer-upper and presented as-is, prospective buyers should plan their scope and budget around cosmetic and system improvements needed to bring the units to their desired condition.

Key Highlights

  • 1921 duplex with approximately 3,169 SF and an open floor plan layout in both units
  • Central heat and central air in both units

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
$40,127
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
8.92%
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.
