Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Located in the heart of Columbia's entertainment and dining district, this property on East Broadway offers premium visibility and exceptional foot traffic. The property benefits from an established cash flow from Broadway Brewery's basement lease, providing immediate income. There is a significant value-add opportunity with approximately 3,500 - 7,000 square feet of vacant space, presenting immediate upside potential for owner expansion, additional tenant income, or mixed-use conversion. Multiple configuration options allow buyers to occupy the main level while maintaining income from the basement tenant, or negotiate additional lease revenue. The property is located in Columbia's most walkable, amenity-rich neighborhood. The M-DT (Downtown Mixed-Use) zoning encourages dense, walkable development blending residential, commercial, office, and entertainment uses. Redevelopment opportunities include mixed-use conversion with residential apartments or boutique office space on the second floor while maintaining ground-level retail or restaurant. Other potential uses include a boutique hotel or short-term rental to capitalize on University of Missouri events, sports weekends, and downtown entertainment demand, creative office or co-working space, or flagship retail or restaurant. The property has 10,688 square feet of space.

Key Highlights

  • Significant Value‑Add Opportunity: 3,500 - 7,000SF of vacant space for expansion or income.
  • Immediate Income with Built‑In Tenant Base: Established cash flow from Broadway Brewery's basement lease.

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
$40,629
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
3.56%
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.
