NEW PRICE! OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY, MAY 24, 2-4PM. Located in the premier Heards Ferry/Riverwood school district, the home is distinguished by its classic double-porch architecture. French doors with retractable screens open from every room onto upper and lower porches that span the width of the house, connecting the rooms to the outdoors and offering a vantage point to enjoy the views and the breeze. The interior has been thoughtfully updated, featuring hardwood floors throughout, a guest bedroom and bath on the main level, a fireside family room, sunny breakfast room, and separate living and dining rooms. The Master Suite is a spacious retreat with vaulted ceiling, natural light, and ample closets. Outside, the grounds are anchored by a flagstone patio and framed by vibrant, mature azaleas and Japanese maples that create a private, low maintenance area for entertaining or quiet relaxation. There's an unfinished daylight basement with ample storage space and plenty of opportunity. A convenient Sandy Springs location minutes to I-285 and Ga400, and East Cobb. Nature and cultural events are nearby: Chattahoochee Recreational area at Cochran Shoals, Abernathy Arts Center, and the Performing Arts Center at City Springs. Newer roof, AC, and water heater are already in place.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 4-bed/3.0-bath single-family listed at $750k.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $953 ($11k/yr) — positive.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $695k (7.4% below list).
  • Recommended offer: $695k (7.4% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
  • Cap rate 7.8% vs local median 2.7% in Sandy Springs — 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 73/100 on livability (#45 in GA) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: employment A+, crime A-, commute A-; Watch: amenities F, cost of living F.
  • Fulton County (suburban): math 49% / reading 53% proficiency, ranked #12 of 174 in GA (top 7%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
  • Market conditions: Rents soft (-0.2%/yr); 369 active listings in the ZIP; 6 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; rentals at typical pace (median 24d on market — plan ~3-4 weeks tenant-placement turnaround); high-income renter base; 11,565 units permitted in Fulton County in 2024 (8,159 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $6,948/mo this rent would consume 74% of the median local household income ($112k/yr) (locally 1884% of renters already pay >50% of income on rent) — very limited rent-growth headroom before tenants either downsize or default.

Forward outlook

  • Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $5k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $22k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • Fulton County population projected at +38% by 2050 — long-run rental-demand tailwind backs the buy-and-hold thesis.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 50 days — a 3% lower offer ($728k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 2 sale attempts; this cycle's ask has dropped $125k (14%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
  • Current owner paid $445k; list at $750k implies a 69% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Climate carrying-cost: extreme-heat days projected 6→16/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Recommended offer $694,815 (7.4% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 50 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 7% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  2. Built in 1963 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
  3. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
