Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 4-plex offers a single-level layout across four units, designed for straightforward day-to-day maintenance. Updates are present throughout the residences, including quartz countertops, LVP flooring, and stainless steel appliances. Each unit also includes its own private fenced backyard, providing outdoor space that is separated from neighboring tenants. Off-street parking is available with multiple spaces.

The property is located near Brentwood Park and the Brentwood Community Garden, placing recreation and community amenities within close reach. Unit #4 is currently vacant, which can be useful for an owner-occupant scenario or for onboarding an additional tenant.

For investors or owner-occupants, the combination of modern in-unit finishes and independent fenced outdoor areas can support tenant appeal while keeping operations manageable. The availability of a vacant unit may also simplify planning for occupancy timing and lease-up relative to fully occupied properties.

Key Highlights

  • 4‑plex with single‑level layout and 2,000 total building area (year built 1942)
  • Each unit includes updated interiors with quartz countertops, LVP flooring, and stainless steel appliances
  • 2‑bedroom, 1‑bath unit type: 4 units total; Unit 1 rent is $1,455

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
$29,371
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
3.79%
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.
