Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This offering includes two retail condominium units positioned as a corner property, totaling 2,232 square feet. The space is delivered vacant and configured with 1,116 square feet of retail area plus another 1,116 square feet of finished below-grade space. Ceiling heights are over 10 feet, providing an open, storefront-appropriate feel for the above-grade portion. With 43 feet of frontage, the building presents substantial linear exposure for a retail tenant or owner-operator.

The property is located at the highly visible corner of Grand Street and Wythe Avenue in the heart of Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The corner configuration and frontage length are intended to support strong storefront presence along a prominent retail corridor within the neighborhood.

Available for sale as condominium retail, the units offer immediate flexibility for investors and owner-users since no tenant is in place at delivery. The offering also presents projected rents of approximately $150 per square foot, which can help prospective purchasers underwrite their preferred ownership structure and operating strategy based on the property’s existing, ready-to-use buildout.

Key Highlights

  • Vacant corner retail at the highly visible intersection of Grand Street and Wythe Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn
  • 1,116 SF of vacant retail space with 43 feet of frontage on a prime retail corridor
  • Over 10‑foot high ceilings in the retail space

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
$107,035
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
6.69%
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.
