Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
Located in the Holmesburg section of Northeast Philadelphia, this property offers approximately 4,452 square feet of drive-in warehouse space. It features two 80’ x 21’ bays (1,680 SF each) and one 52’ x 21’ bay (1,092 SF), along with an additional 300 square foot office space. One of the garage bays includes a bathroom. The property features new garage doors. The 52’ bay is currently connected to one of the 80’ bays but includes its own separate garage door and can easily be demised to create an additional independent unit. The site also includes a 15-car parking lot. One 80’ bay is currently leased at $1,500 per month, providing in-place income, while the remaining warehouse space and office area are available for lease or owner occupancy. ICMX zoning permits a wide variety of commercial and light industrial uses including contractor space, warehouse and distribution, storage, and auto-related operations. Annual real estate taxes total $4,888. The property is located near Frankford Avenue, Cottman Avenue, Route 1, public transportation, and South Jersey bridges, presenting a strong opportunity for investors or owner-users.

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
$45,538
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
7.60%
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.
