Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Located in the historic Alta Vista neighborhood, minutes from Downtown San Antonio and The Pearl, 834 W Russell Place is a fully renovated four-unit multifamily property. Originally constructed in 1925, the building underwent a comprehensive renovation completed in summer 2025, including foundation work, new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, and windows. The historic exterior brick façade was retained, preserving the property’s character. The property totals 2,080 square feet across four 1-bedroom, 1-bath units on approximately 0.13 acres. The property is fully occupied. Interior finishes include granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, oak wood flooring, tile in wet areas, new interior doors, ceiling fans, and updated lighting fixtures throughout. Operational efficiency is enhanced by individual electric meters and an on-site community washer and dryer. The recent renovations materially lower near-term capital expenditure risk and position the asset for stable, long-term performance. The property benefits from proximity to downtown amenities, universities, and major employment centers, as well as planned infrastructure improvements including the VIA Rapid Green Line. It offers a compelling opportunity to acquire a turnkey, cash-flowing multifamily asset.

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
$23,941
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
3.28%
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.
