Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This income-producing apartment building includes two structures totaling six residential units, plus a bonus office with a bathroom that may be converted into an additional rental unit. The front building contains two units, each configured with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The back building includes four additional units: one 2-bedroom/1-bath, one 1-bedroom/2-bath, and two 1-bedroom/1-bath units. The property has six separate water meters and six separate electric meters, with the electrical recently updated. Two central A/C units have also been replaced recently. Several tenants have been in place for over five years. Total vacant units: 3; all other units are occupied.

Convenient daily-mobility context is reflected in the provided walk score of 78 and bike score of 82, with transit score of 49.

For buyers or operators, the separately metered setup and recent electrical and HVAC replacements can reduce near-term capital planning while supporting straightforward unit-by-unit management. The mix of unit sizes provides flexibility for tenant demand, and the on-site office with bathroom offers an additional layout opportunity if conversion to a rental unit is desired. Please contact your realtor for more information.

Key Highlights

  • Six‑unit apartment building (built 1930) with 3 total vacant units; the remaining units are occupied

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
$26,193
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
5.26%
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.
