Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This property presents a new 10-year single-tenant NNN lease opportunity in Paducah, Kentucky, a regional commercial hub in western Kentucky. Paducah serves as a primary retail destination for surrounding communities and benefits from stable population levels, consistent consumer demand, and strong automotive traffic patterns. The area's economy is supported by healthcare, manufacturing, transportation, and retail industries. The new lease provides investors with long-term income security through April 2035. The tenant operates under the nationally recognized Ziebart brand, a global leader in automotive protection services founded in 1959. The passive NNN lease structure means the tenant is responsible for taxes, insurance reimbursements, utilities, HVAC maintenance, and general property upkeep, with landlord responsibilities limited to roof and structural components. The tenant has personally guaranteed the full term of the lease, demonstrating a strong commitment. Automotive maintenance and protection services provide consistent demand regardless of economic cycles. This is an ideal opportunity for 1031 exchange and passive investors seeking stable cash flow.

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
$89,586
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
6.17%
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.
