Investment snapshot
Income and lease details aren’t published in the MLS for this listing. Ask for the offering memorandum and rent roll to run cap rate, NOI and cash-on-cash.
Estimated payment (illustrative)
Estimated payment
$2,906/mo
Illustrative only. Commercial loans are underwritten on the property’s income (DSCR, cap rate) — typically 25–35% down with lender-set terms. Ask a commercial lender for real numbers. Taxes reflect the most recent bill on record; insurance is a typical-Florida estimate. Your lender’s numbers will differ. CENTURY 21 Edge partners with Florida’s best lenders.
Financing
Commercial financing works differently from a home loan — expect roughly 25–35% down with terms driven by the property’s income and your lender’s underwriting (DSCR, cap rate), not FHA or VA programs. Ask Kat to connect you with a commercial lender for real numbers.
