Listing remarks MLS

Introducing Baker’s Block; a distinguished three-story, 7-unit mixed-use brick building located in the heart of downtown Claremont, prominently situated on a ±0.22-acre urban lot. Positioned along one of Claremont’s primary downtown corridors, the property offers a stabilized income stream supported by both residential and commercial tenancy. Baker’s Block features a well-balanced unit mix consisting of four residential apartments — a combination of spacious one- and two-bedroom layouts — alongside three street-level commercial units. The property has undergone substantial renovations over the past two years, including comprehensive updates to all residential units and commercial spaces, modernizing interiors while preserving the character of the historic brick structure. Additional capital improvements include updated common areas, lead abatement in one apartment and portions of the common space, replacement windows, a new boiler, new water heaters, upgraded electrical service and panels, plumbing improvements, roof replacement, a rebuilt fire escape, and the installation of building-wide internet, security systems, and electronic locks on residential unit doors. Mechanical systems consist of a combination of forced hot water and direct-vent heating units fueled by propane, providing operational flexibility. The property also benefits from supplemental income through three leased off-site parking spaces rented to the neighboring property at 32–40 Pleasant Street for $50 per month per space, while on-site parking provides one dedicated space per residential unit with convenient trash service located within the parking area. With its recent renovations, diversified income streams, strong occupancy history, and central downtown location, Baker’s Block represents an attractive turnkey mixed-use investment opportunity. Property sold as a package with 524 Sunapee Street, Newport, NH. Broker Interest. Financials available upon execution of NDA.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

• This is a 4×1bd/1ba + 3×2bd/1ba units multifamily listed at $850k. Condition is rated good.

Deal economics

• At list price, monthly cash flow is $2k ($26k/yr) — positive. Per door: $306/mo.
• The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
• Meets the 1% rule at list price ($10k rent vs $850k).
• Recommended offer: $774k (9.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
• Cap rate 9.3% vs local median 3.2% in Claremont — top-decile yield for the area; either an underpriced asset or a hidden risk that comps aren't pricing in. Stress-test before assuming the spread holds.

Location & tenants

• Location reads 69/100 on livability (#50 in NH) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, health & safety A+, housing A; Watch: employment C-, schools D-, amenities F.
• Claremont School District (town): math 24% / reading 35% proficiency, ranked #85 of 98 in NH (top 87%) — low school quality limits family demand, transient renter base, plan for 1-2y turnover.
• Market conditions: 58 active listings in the ZIP; 1 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; 98 units permitted in Sullivan County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
• At $10,147/mo this rent would consume 204% of the median local household income ($60k/yr) (locally 642% of renters already pay >50% of income on rent) — very limited rent-growth headroom before tenants either downsize or default.

Forward outlook

• In year one you build about $8k of equity ($6k loan paydown + $2k appreciation (0.2% local appreciation)).
• Sullivan County population projected at -20% by 2050 — secular population decline; favor cash flow + early exit over multi-decade hold.
• At projected returns (0.2% appreciation + 3.0% rent growth), your $238k cash investment doubles in ~6 years — after that, you're playing with house money.
• By year 6, paydown + projected appreciation supports a ~$51k cash-out refi (75% LTV) — recoverable capital for the next deal without selling this one.

Negotiation context

• It's been on market 109 days — a 9% lower offer ($774k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.

Risks & watch-outs

• Watch-outs: built in 1906 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.

Recommended offer $773,500 (9.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

1. It's been on market 109 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 9% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
2. Can we see the unit-by-unit rent roll, current vacancy, and any below-market leases? What's the average tenancy length?
3. What capital expenditures (roof, boiler, parking lot, exteriors) have been made in the last 5 years, and what's planned in the next 2?
4. Built in 1906 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
5. Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
6. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
7. Schools are D-rated, which usually means shorter tenancies and higher turnover. Who's the typical renter profile here, and what's been the actual vacancy rate?
8. What's the average days-on-market for RENTAL listings here right now (not sales)? A rising rental-DOM trend means longer vacancies and softer asking-rent achievability than the comps imply.
9. What's the recent tenant-quality profile in this submarket — average credit score on applications, eviction rate, late-payment / NSF rate, and stable-employment percentage? A property-management company in the area should have these aggregated.
10. How much new apartment / multifamily construction is in the pipeline within 1–3 miles? Heavy new supply (>2% of stock underway) typically softens rents 12–24 months out; light construction supports rent growth.

For passive investors: Depreciation is non-cash, so a rental often shows a tax loss while cash-flowing — sheltering income. Rental losses are passive: they offset passive income freely, and up to $25,000/yr can offset ordinary (W-2) income if you actively participate and your MAGI is under $100k (phasing out to $0 by $150k); unused losses carry forward. On sale, claimed depreciation is recaptured at up to 25%, and gains may owe capital-gains tax (a 1031 exchange can defer both). Figures are a year-1 estimate at your 24.0% rate — not tax advice; consult a CPA.
