Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This for-sale, two-building income property totals four units, featuring a three-unit apartment building at 535 Chestnut Street and a separate single-family ranch home at 103 Somers Street with a built-in garage beneath. In the three-unit building, each unit has its own separate electric service, while the landlord currently pays heat and water/sewer. The single-family residence is served by its own separate utilities.
The property is situated on a corner setting at Chestnut Street and Somers Street in Dunmore, PA. The listing notes convenient proximity to local amenities, shopping, and major transportation routes.
The existing unit mix and utility arrangements may appeal to investors looking for an established residential income package with multiple configurations under one ownership. The property is reported to be occupied by long-term tenants, supporting continuity of occupancy. With both a multi-unit structure and an attached separate single-family home within the offering, this setup can also suit buyers seeking to diversify unit type while maintaining a single management point of focus.

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
$40,920
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
8.35%
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.
