Based on property information with market context.

This upgraded duplex offers two separate units with distinct addresses, providing flexibility for investors or an owner-occupant. Each unit features two traditional bedrooms plus a versatile third room that can serve as a bedroom, home office, or flex space, along with one bathroom. Interior amenities include a cozy fireplace and a separate laundry room. Both units have private, fully fenced backyards, a shared covered carport, and individual storage closets. Recent improvements include a roof approximately two years old, fresh interior and exterior paint, new interior and exterior lighting, updated door hardware, and copper interior plumbing. The electrical has been updated with numerous new outlets and GFCI receptacles, and insulation has been improved. Both units are equipped with gas ranges, and evaporative coolers were replaced approximately two years ago.

The property is located at 6010 Ocotillo Avenue in 29 Palms, with access to downtown conveniences in the area and proximity to the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, approximately five minutes from the front gate as described in the remarks.

With strong, practical in-place upgrades and two separate addresses, the property can support multiple living or income scenarios without relying on a major renovation. The combination of private outdoor space, separate laundry, and updated building systems makes it particularly suitable for tenants who want functional everyday features in a residential income setting.

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
$24,485
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
7.22%
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.
