Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1920, this duplex contains two separately addressed residences at 2728 and 2730 S. Carrollton Avenue. The larger unit includes two bedrooms, two full baths, a kitchen, formal living and dining rooms, and a full-sized laundry room with additional storage. The second residence provides two bedrooms, one full bath, and in-unit laundry. Both units have access to the screened front porch and maintain private courtyards at the rear.

Kitchen and bathroom renovations were completed in 2015, followed by new supply plumbing in both residences, interior paint, new hot water heaters, and HVAC replacement in the 2728 unit. The metal roof was serviced and re-sealed in 2024. The property is in an X flood zone and offers access to Uptown and Downtown New Orleans, Jefferson Parish, nearby streetcar service, universities, restaurants, and daily conveniences along the Carrollton corridor. The layout supports owner occupancy with a second residence or continued use as a two-unit investment property.

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
$28,237
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
6.64%
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.
