Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
Located on the Historic Dahlonega Square, 75 East Main Street presents an opportunity in one of the nation's fastest-growing counties. The property is situated steps away from the University of North Georgia’s Dahlonega campus, which has nearly 8,000 students. The 7,000-square-foot building is currently home to a successful, long-standing, multi-vendor antique store business that could be included in the sale. The property's CBD zoning in the City of Dahlonega allows for revitalization of this space into a restaurant, event venue, church, or historic museum. Dahlonega is known as the start of the gold rush in the early 1800’s, and its history still attracts visitors. The area also features agritourism attractions such as wineries, wedding venues, resorts, hiking trails, and ATV parks. The property is suited for an owner-user re-imagination of the space or for someone looking for an income-producing property.
Key Highlights
- Prime location on the Historic Dahlonega Square, a vibrant downtown area.
- Close proximity to the University of North Georgia's Dahlonega campus.
- CBD zoning offers diverse redevelopment opportunities.
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
$98,458
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
4.49%
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.
