If the asteroid is a ball of ice covered with dust, it will be the most valuable piece of real estate in the solar system outside of Earth. Pop a nuclear reactor on it=instant rocket fuel factory, hydrogen and oxygen (which happens to be pretty good for breathing also). Easy-on, easy off with low escape velocity.
