Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Built in 1954, this 3,522-square-foot duplex features two purpose-built, side-by-side residences rather than a single-family conversion. Each unit includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, a lower-level family room, an attached one-car garage, and one driveway parking space. Hardwood flooring, forced-air natural gas heating, wood siding, brick, and an asphalt roof are among the documented improvements. The exterior has been newly painted, and the roof is approximately 10 years old.

Both residences are occupied by month-to-month tenants, and each unit has its own owned solar array with no solar lease. The property sits on a 0.17-acre lot at 5508 NE Fremont St in Portland, Oregon. Public water serves the property. Its independent unit configuration supports either owner occupancy of one residence with continued rental use of the other or a two-unit hold strategy.

Key Highlights

  • 3,522‑square‑foot purpose‑built duplex with two side‑by‑side units
  • Each unit has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a lower‑level family room
  • Attached one‑car garage and one driveway parking space for each unit

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
$49,081
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
8.18%
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.
