Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This three-unit retail building features 90 feet of frontage on Pacific Avenue in San Pedro. Situated in the heart of the San Pedro Property Business Initiative District (PBID), this property presents an investment opportunity to rehabilitate and capitalize on the revitalization of the 6th & 7th Street downtown areas, the Warner Grand Theatre, the new West Harbor waterfront development, and multiple new high-end apartment units. The current configuration includes an approximately 1650-square-foot barber shop, an approximately 2300-square-foot pawn shop, and an approximately 4550-square-foot secondhand store with an arcade entrance that could be divided into two separate units. All units are currently under month-to-month NNN leases, offering potential for increased rental income upon rehabilitation.
Key Highlights
- Prime location on historic Pacific Ave in the San Pedro Property Business Initiative District (PBID).
- Significant rent upside potential after rehabilitation.
- Excellent investment opportunity due to the revitalization of the 6th & 7th St downtown areas.
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
$105,593
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
8.84%
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.
