Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This updated quadplex contains four residential units and offers meaningful improvements throughout. One unit is expected to become available soon, creating flexibility for an owner-occupant seeking a shorter transition time, or for an investor looking to lease multiple units.

The property is located at 4221 S 2nd St in Louisville, Kentucky. It is described as being minutes from Noble Funk Brewing Company, Huston Quin Park, and George Rogers Clark Park, placing residents within reach of local destinations.

As a multi-family income property, the four-unit layout can support a variety of ownership strategies, including living in one unit while renting the others. With the work already completed via updates throughout, the asset presents as a more manageable option compared to a property requiring major renovations, while the upcoming availability adds timing advantage for a new tenant or owner plan.

Key Highlights

  • Four‑unit quadplex built in 1960
  • Updated quadplex with meaningful updates throughout
  • One additional unit expected soon, offering owner‑occupant and rental flexibility

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
$29,190
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
7.89%
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.
