Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This property consists of two detached buildings on a single lot, delivered 100% vacant and sold strictly as-is. The front building includes a street-level storefront of approximately 500 square feet with a bathroom and storage, with an additional 3-bedroom, 1-bath residential unit directly above. The rear building features a separate 3-bedroom, 2-bath residential unit.

The buildings are located along the high-visibility Sonoma Boulevard corridor. The configuration creates separate spaces that can support mixed-use objectives, with the storefront frontage paired with above and rear residential layouts.

For buyers or operators, the asset provides a clear option for re-tenanting retail/office use at the front while restoring and renting the existing residential units. The owner is currently working on architectural plans for an ADU addition, which may help the next owner plan additional income-producing space as part of the property’s overall redevelopment. As a fixer-upper sold as-is, it is best suited for buyers comfortable taking on deferred improvements and positioning the site for new occupancy.

Key Highlights

  • Two detached buildings on a single lot with separate street‑level and residential spaces
  • Front building: ~500 SF street‑level storefront with a bathroom and storage
  • Front building includes a 3‑bedroom, 1‑bath unit above the storefront

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
$38,428
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
8.09%
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.
