Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This turnkey, income-producing three-unit residential building offers three separate 3-bedroom units. The second-floor layout includes two full baths. Recent improvements over the past five years include 44 new windows, a new roof, new boilers for the first and second floors, three new water heaters, and full renovations to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd floors.

The property includes a 4-car driveway and a spacious backyard. A standout feature is the gutted basement, which includes a legal bathroom and is presented with plans in the photos as a possible fourth unit.

For tenants, this configuration supports straightforward, multi-unit living with multiple full-bath options on the upper floor. For an owner-occupant or investor, the building’s current income profile includes the 1st floor leased through December and the 3rd floor leased through December, while the 2nd floor will be delivered vacant at the listed market rent, enabling an immediate market-rate opportunity or owner use. The property is being marketed as ready to rent following the recent updates.

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
$52,338
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
6.89%
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.
