Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1927, this brick triplex contains approximately 3,145 square feet of above-grade living space across three separate units. The layout includes a three-bedroom first-floor residence and two one-bedroom units, each with a full bathroom. The main unit includes living and dining rooms, a kitchen, laundry room, hardwood floors, approximately 9-foot ceilings, and a cedar-lined walk-in closet. Kitchen appliances include a refrigerator, wall oven, and dishwasher.

A full unfinished basement with exterior walk-out access adds storage and utility space, with dual sump pumps and a backup system. Each unit has separate utilities, including three gas meters, three electric panels, and three gas-fired hot water heating systems; each panel is approximately 100 amps. Public water and sewer serve the property. The 0.07-acre parcel is in Albany, with access to shopping, dining, transportation, employment centers, schools, downtown Albany, and the surrounding Capital Region. Some asbestos is present and requires appropriate evaluation and handling.

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
$35,816
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
8.43%
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.
