Listing remarks MLS
When you first arrive at this 55+ community, it has the definite feel of being in suburbia, yet you are only 4 miles from all the amenities that Tilton and Exit 20 offer in the heart of the Lakes Region. There is also a hiking trail at the lower end of the park. This double-wide mobile home has a convenient floor plan with the master bedroom with en suite and the two other bedrooms on opposite ends of the home for more privacy. The kitchen has been updated with a new dishwasher, microwave with a vented fan, garbage disposal, quality cabinets, and a super lazy susan. The kitchen skylight can be opened for additional ventilation. No need to sweat out hot summer days or power outages because central air conditioning and a back-up automatic generator are included. A good-sized shed provides additional storage capacity. The backyard is very private and filled with plentiful shrubberies. Great value for the money!

What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 3-bed/2.0-bath manufactured listed at $89k.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $-525 ($-6k/yr) — negative.
- To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $26k (70.2% below list).
- Meets the 1% rule at list price ($2k rent vs $89k).
- Recommended offer: $26k (70.2% below list) — sets the bar for cash-flow.
- Cap rate -0.8% vs local median 1.7% in Belmont — below-typical yield; the buyer is paying a premium for something (appreciation thesis, condition, location) that the cap rate doesn't capture.
Location & tenants
- Location reads 61/100 on livability (#89 in NH) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: crime A+, cost of living A+; Watch: health & safety C-, housing D, amenities F.
- Shaker Regional School District (rural): math 27% / reading 45% proficiency, ranked #70 of 98 in NH (top 71%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
- Zoned schools: Belmont Elementary School (math 27% / reading 32%, grade F, #201 of 263 statewide, top 82%, 334 students, 40% FRL); Belmont Middle School (math 21% / reading 46%, grade F, #59 of 96 statewide, top 61%, 345 students, 31% FRL); Belmont High School (math 32% / reading 52%, grade F, #56 of 90 statewide, top 64%, 366 students, 27% FRL) — zoned schools at 33% FRL track the district average.
- Market conditions: 1 active listings in the ZIP; 1 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; 301 units permitted in Belknap County in 2024 (32 in 5+ unit buildings).
Forward outlook
- In year one you build about $3k of equity ($615 loan paydown + $3k appreciation (3.0% local appreciation)).
- Belknap County population projected at -10% by 2050 — secular population decline; favor cash flow + early exit over multi-decade hold.
- By year 10, paydown + projected appreciation supports a ~$32k cash-out refi (75% LTV) — recoverable capital for the next deal without selling this one.
Negotiation context
- It's been on market 258 days — a 12% lower offer ($78k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
- 4 sale attempts since 21y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $25k (22%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
Risks & watch-outs
- Watch-outs: property tax is 2.8% of price; HOA is 69% of rent.
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?
- It's been on market 258 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 70% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
- Property tax is high relative to price — has the assessment been appealed recently, and will the sale trigger a re-assessment?
- What does the HOA fee cover, when was the last increase, and are there any pending special assessments or reserve-fund shortfalls?
- Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
- 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.
