Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This fully renovated three-family residence was rebuilt to the studs in 2018 and updated throughout with high-quality finishes and modern building systems. Each of the three spacious apartments offers six rooms with three bedrooms and one full bath, along with high ceilings, hardwood floors, and generous living and dining room space. Kitchens are designed for everyday living with eat-in layouts, white cabinetry, granite countertops, and newer stainless-steel appliances from approximately 2–3 years ago. Tiled bathrooms, Nest thermostats, and full-size in-unit stackable washer/dryers add everyday convenience. Major 2018 improvements included windows, electrical work, super-efficient heating systems, and hot water tanks. A shingled roof was installed in 2023, and the property also includes basement storage, a shed, and a backyard for outdoor use.

Located at 576 Franklin St in Worcester, MA 01608, the home offers city views. A paved driveway provides nine off-street parking spaces, supporting tenant parking needs. The extra-large lot may allow for additional development options for a single-family home or an ADU, subject to buyer due diligence.

The layout and in-unit amenities make this property well-suited for an owner-occupant looking for comfortable, updated living while renting other units, or for an investor seeking a move-in-ready, fully renovated three-family with meaningful resident upgrades. Prospective buyers should review local requirements for any potential single-family or ADU expansion during due diligence.

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
$49,959
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
5.26%
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.
