Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This C2-zoned infill site is currently improved with three occupied retail storefronts, producing approximately $6,000 per month in gross holding income. The property is sold AS-IS, and buyers should plan to evaluate the existing improvements as part of their redevelopment strategy.
The offering is positioned on Santa Monica Blvd and benefits from a highly walkable setting and nearby transit access, with Walk Score and Transit Score data indicating strong pedestrian connectivity and workable public transportation. Bike Score is also provided, supporting the overall multimodal character of the immediate area.
Under current C2 zoning, the site offers approximately 14 residential units by right, subject to buyer verification of all development parameters. The seller notes the possibility of additional density through State Density Bonus and Transit Oriented Communities (TOC) affordable housing incentives, which may support a larger project size, with eligibility and TOC tiering requiring independent confirmation. For developers and merchant builders looking for a corridor-frontage parcel to work through entitlement with existing income in place, this is a fit for a “bite-sized” urban infill concept, with all zoning, unit count, FAR, height, setbacks, and parking requirements to be verified by the purchaser.

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
$68,809
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
4.30%
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.
