Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This for-sale automotive shop and office building includes approximately 3,000 square feet of shop area and about 900 square feet of office space. The facility features four garage bays and ample parking, with fencing on site. The newer larger garage includes a heated flooring system, and the exterior is constructed with metal siding designed for minimal maintenance. Inside the main office, there is a customer check-in area, a separate large office, a full bathroom, a kitchen/breakroom, and an additional open area that could support storage or an added office function. Heating and cooling are provided via mini-split systems.
The property is located in Herculaneum, Missouri on U.S. Highway 61, positioned for high visibility and frequent traffic. The site sits on approximately 0.63 acres and offers a straightforward layout for operations that require both customer-facing space and functional work areas.
This configuration can fit tenants and buyers looking for an automotive-focused use with on-site administrative space, including customer check-in and private office areas, while still maintaining practical shop depth and loading/garage access through four bays. The enclosed work areas and fenced, parking-supported site are also well suited for light commercial service operators needing a dedicated facility.

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
$62,292
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
5.19%
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.
