What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 5-bed/3.5-bath single-family listed at $600k.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $-114 ($-1k/yr) — negative.
- To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $580k (3.3% below list).
- To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $550k (8.3% below list).
- Recommended offer: $550k (8.3% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
- Cap rate 6.1% vs local median 4.2% in Wood Dale — 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 71/100 on livability (#328 in IL) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: crime A+, housing A+, employment A; Watch: commute C-, amenities D, health & safety F.
- Fenton Chsd 100 (suburban): math 20% / reading 26% proficiency, ranked #335 of 620 in IL (top 54%) — low school quality limits family demand, transient renter base, plan for 1-2y turnover.
- Zoned schools: W A Johnson Sch (math 11% / reading 22%, grade F, #1,224 of 2,056 statewide, top 60%, 618 students, 0% FRL); Blackhawk Middle School (math 21% / reading 32%, grade F, #312 of 665 statewide, top 48%, 668 students, 0% FRL); Fenton High School (math 20% / reading 26%, grade F, #312 of 693 statewide, top 46%, 1,448 students, 0% FRL).
- Market conditions: 30 active listings in the ZIP; 1 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; 1,378 units permitted in DuPage County in 2024 (594 in 5+ unit buildings).
Forward outlook
- Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $4k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $18k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
Negotiation context
- Only 2 days on market — expect competitive offers; lowballing is unlikely to land.
- 2 sale attempts since 9y ago with the ask held roughly flat each time — persistent listings suggest the price (not the market) is what's stuck; bring a comps-based counter.
- Current owner paid $330k; list at $600k implies a 82% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.
Questions for the listing agent
- What do current leases actually rent for vs. the listed asking? Can we see a recent rent roll and the last 12 months of T-12 income?
- Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
- 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?
- The area grade is low — what's the realistic commute time and amenity access for the typical tenant pool here? Any planned neighborhood developments (good or bad) we should know about?
- 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.
- 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.
- How much new for-sale + rental construction is in the pipeline within 1–3 miles? Heavy new supply typically softens prices + rents 12–24 months out; constrained supply supports both.

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.
