Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This is a very well maintained 11-unit multifamily property featuring all one-bedroom, one-bath units. The building includes three units currently occupied for immediate cash flow, six move-in-ready units that are described as fully furnished, and two units that are fully gutted and ready for quick renovation. Additional improvements cited include a new roof. Each unit is separately metered with its own water meter and is equipped with central heat/air.

The property also includes an on-site courtesy laundromat and a private dumpster service, along with plenty of off-street parking. Located at 917 Oakview Avenue Unit 1, 2, 5 in Columbus, GA, the building is minutes from downtown Columbus and is directly across from the Columbus Museum, with restaurants, schools, shopping, parks, and major travel routes within steps.

From a layout and unit-status standpoint, the mix of occupied, move-in-ready, and gutted units provides a straightforward framework for a new owner to manage current income while completing renovations on the remaining units.

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
$57,873
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
9.04%
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.
