Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

3980 Carlisle Road is a commercially zoned retail property currently operating as a turnkey hair salon and spa. The building includes approximately 1,798 square feet on a 0.20-acre parcel and is offered for sale with the real estate and the operating salon business assets, including furniture, fixtures, and equipment. The current interior layout features four styling stations plus tanning, and the property includes main-level ramp access to support accessibility.

The site is positioned along PA Route 74 in Dover Township, York County, on Carlisle Road/PA Route 74. The property has on-site parking and benefits from daily visibility along this primary north-south corridor connecting Dover with the greater York market. Listing materials indicate convenient access from Carlisle Road. The seller notes that transition assistance is available, and one current stylist intends to remain after sale, subject to final buyer/seller terms.

This property is well suited for a salon operator seeking a ready-to-operate location with an established buildout, existing FF&E, and ongoing staff continuity subject to agreement. It may also appeal to an investor, developer, or adjacent property holder looking for a modest-sized commercial parcel in a retail-oriented corridor. As part of due diligence, buyers are encouraged to verify traffic counts, access, signage, and applicable use approvals with Dover Township and relevant agencies.

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
$21,454
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
5.70%
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.
