Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This offering features a single-tenant, net-leased retail asset occupied by Advance Auto Parts. The freestanding building, constructed in 1993, comprises approximately 8,174 square feet and is positioned on a 0.73-acre corner parcel. The property benefits from high visibility, ample parking, and easy access within a high-traffic commercial area. The location is not near industrial complexes, which supports long-term retail viability. The lease is structured as a net (NN) lease, assigning responsibility to the tenant for taxes, insurance, utilities, interior maintenance, assignment and subletting provisions, and estoppel certification. The landlord is responsible for the roof, HVAC system, parking area, and the structural components of the building, including slab and foundation. The building features decorative cinder block construction and a new roof installed in sections, completed in 2023. The property offers investors stable income from a nationally recognized automotive retailer in a strong, visible corner location.

  • Attractive 7.48% cap rate on annual rent of $57,861.

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
$67,975
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
9.08%
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.
