Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This legal three-family brick hi-ranch property is in need of total gut renovation. The home is configured as a three-unit setup with 5 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms across the building, and it includes 3 kitchens. The asset will be delivered vacant, providing clear access for a full interior scope and unit-by-unit improvements.

The property is located at 875A Greene Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11221. The listing also notes very strong walk, bike, and transit scores (WalkScore 92, BikeScore 87, TransitScore 96), which may support tenant interest in a walkable, transit-accessible setting.

For investors or experienced owner-occupants, the vacancy and “need total gut renovation” condition can make this a straightforward candidate for a full redevelopment plan. With three kitchens and the stated bedroom and bathroom counts, the layout is suited to renovation work aimed at restoring each unit to rent-ready condition. The property’s multi-family structure offers an opportunity to modernize a brick hi-ranch into a cohesive three-unit residential asset, based on your renovation specifications and operating goals.

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
$82,791
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
5.71%
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.
