Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 20-unit multi-family complex in Ukiah Valley presents a unique opportunity for investors and developers. Situated on approximately 2.3 acres, the property offers cash flow and the potential for additional units. Originally subdivided in 1985 into condominiums on 20 individual legal parcels, these townhomes are currently rented with strong rents and a stable tenant base. Each unit features a spacious floor plan with 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, large upstairs bedrooms with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom and ample closets, central HVAC, fireplaces, and private fenced yards. On-site amenities include laundry facilities, an in-ground pool, and carports, along with additional paved parking. Zoned PD (planned development), a significant portion of the undeveloped land could be used for building more multi-family units. The property features landscaping with redwoods and underground utilities, creating a park-like setting at the end of a cul-de-sac in a desirable, centrally located neighborhood. Ukiah is located in the heart of Mendocino County Wine Country, under two hours from the Golden Gate Bridge and one hour north of the Sonoma County Airport.

Key Highlights

  • Terrific cash flow with strong rents and a stable tenant base.
  • Potential for building additional multi‑family units on undeveloped land due to PD zoning.
  • 20‑unit complex on 2.3± acres subdivided into 20 individual legal parcels.

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
$188,995
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
4.73%
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.
