Listing remarks MLS

5 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms | Approx. 2,740 Sq. Ft. The Meyerson offers expansive two-story living with a balanced mix of open gathering spaces and private retreats, designed for everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. From the welcoming foyer, the home opens into a bright central living area where the kitchen, casual dining space, and great room flow together seamlessly. The kitchen features a center island, generous counter space, and a walk-in pantry, all positioned for easy connection to the main living areas. Just off the great room, a covered patio extends the living space outdoors and can be expanded for additional room to relax or host guests. The primary suite is privately located on the first floor, tucked along the rear of the home for added serenity. It includes a spacious bath with dual vanities, a large shower, and a walk-in closet, with options to add direct access to the laundry room or a soaking tub for enhanced comfort. A secondary bedroom on the main level offers flexibility for guests, extended family, or a home office, while a versatile flex room may be personalized as a study, playroom, or quiet retreat. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms surround a large game room, creating a central space for recreation, study, or relaxation. Thoughtful storage throughout the second level adds everyday functionality and keeps the home organized.

🏗️ New construction. The $319,990 list price is a builder figure, so every metric below is computed on the value from comparable previous sales — $380,113.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 5-bed/3.0-bath single-family listed at $320k. Condition is rated good.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $-979 ($-12k/yr) — negative.
  • To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $238k (25.5% below list).
  • To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $209k (34.8% below list).
  • Recommended offer: $209k (34.8% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.

Location & tenants

  • Location reads 61/100 on livability (#1,003 in TX) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A-; Watch: crime D, amenities F, commute F.
  • Waller ISD (rural): math 30% / reading 35% proficiency, ranked #532 of 826 in TX (top 64%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
  • Zoned schools: Fields Store El (math 47% / reading 43%, grade D-, #1,133 of 4,322 statewide, top 27%, 663 students, 63% FRL); Schultz J H (math 31% / reading 37%, grade F, #892 of 1,662 statewide, top 55%, 1,120 students, 65% FRL); Waller H S (math 25% / reading 40%, grade F, #1,029 of 1,632 statewide, top 64%, 2,639 students, 62% FRL) — zoned schools at 63% FRL track the district average.
  • Market conditions: Rents falling (-3.8%/yr); 1496 active listings in the ZIP; solid renter incomes; 29,883 units permitted in Harris County in 2024 (8,621 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • This rent runs 31% of the median local income ($81k/yr) — at the standard rent-burdened threshold; future hikes will face affordability resistance.

Forward outlook

  • Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $3k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $11k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • Harris County population projected at +47% by 2050 — long-run rental-demand tailwind backs the buy-and-hold thesis.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 297 days — a 12% lower offer ($282k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Climate carrying-cost: severe wind risk, 99% chance of damaging wind over 30y; major wildfire risk; extreme-heat days projected 7→21/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Recommended offer $208,591 (34.8% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. 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?
  2. It's been on market 297 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 35% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  3. Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
  4. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  5. Crime grade is D in this area — have there been break-ins, vandalism, or insurance claims at this property in the last 3 years? What carrier currently insures it and at what premium?
  6. 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?
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.

Condition & rehab AI · 6 photos

Good 75/100 Cosmetic rehab Est. rehab $13,700–$41,100 screening

This home is in excellent condition with no visible repairs needed. It offers a good starting point for potential buyers or renters, but a fresh coat of paint and some landscaping improvements could further enhance its value.

Value-add opportunities

  • Both Paint exterior — Fresh paint enhances curb appeal and can increase both resale and rental value
  • Both Upgrade landscaping — A well-maintained garden can improve curb appeal and attract more potential buyers
  • Both Install smart home features — Smart home technology can increase both resale and rental value by making the home more attractive to buyers and renters

ⓘ Rehab cost is a screening estimate — Cosmetic scope × the home's square footage at US $/sqft rules of thumb (the same model as the Flip Finder). Get contractor quotes + a written scope before underwriting.
