Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The offering centers on a five-story office tower completed in 1969, with approximately 43,000 square feet of floor area and efficient floorplates suited to office or adaptive-reuse planning. The building has a prominent ground-level presence and is accompanied by vacant parcels forming a larger assemblage across Canal Street, South White Street, and Cleveland Avenue. Together, the improvements and land provide room for parking, service functions, and phased development while retaining the tower as the central building.

The property fronts Canal Street near the CBD and Mid-City and is served by transit. It is located within the HU-MU Neighborhood Mixed-Use District, which supports mixed-use development near residential areas and encourages active ground-floor retail and personal services with residential uses above. The building’s 1969 vintage and architectural character may support consideration of Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits, subject to eligibility, contributing status, scope, and approvals.

Key Highlights

  • Five‑story office tower with approximately 43,000 SF
  • Completed in 1969
  • Vacant land assemblage spans Canal Street, South White Street, and Cleveland Avenue

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
$567,600
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
9.15%
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.
