A fully automated parallelized implementation of the incremental scheme for coupled-cluster
singles-and-doubles (CCSD) energies has been extended to treat molecular (unrelaxed) first-order
one-electron properties such as the electric dipole and quadrupole moments. The convergence and
accuracy of the incremental approach for the dipole and quadrupole moments have been studied for
a variety of chemically interesting systems. It is found that the electric dipole moment can be
obtained to within 5% and 0.5% accuracy with respect to the exact CCSD value at the third and
fourth orders of the expansion, respectively. Furthermore, we find that the incremental expansion of
the quadrupole moment converges to the exact result with increasing order of the expansion: the
convergence of nonaromatic compounds is fast with errors less than 16 mau and less than 1 mau at
third and fourth orders, respectively (1 mau=10E-3 e a0^2); the aromatic compounds converge slowly
with maximum absolute deviations of 174 and 72 mau at third and fourth orders, respectively
