Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This equestrian property includes two separate homes, including a light-filled bungalow and a two-story log-and-cobblestone cabin with a loft and two fireplaces. The bungalow features a 655-square-foot wraparound deck, while the cabin provides 1,125 square feet of rustic living space. Both residences are supported by extensive equestrian and utility improvements.

Two barns provide eight stalls along with storage for feed, shavings, and tack. The fenced and cross-fenced pastures contain established grass, and additional structures include a cedar bunkhouse, raised-bed garden, ornamental and fruit trees, and an approximately 273-square-foot underground root cellar. An 864-square-foot metal machine shop accommodates an RV, tractor, horse trailer, and vehicles, with a 40-foot premium container adding storage capacity.

The property is located one mile from Yelm on a dead-end lane and offers the flexibility to occupy one home while using the second for guests, rental, or other supported residential purposes.

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
$25,694
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
4.29%
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.
