Investor read
This is a 4-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $183k. Condition is rated fair.
At list price, monthly cash flow is $102 ($1k/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 $173k (5.5% below list).
It's been on market 24 days — a 2% lower offer ($180k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Recommended offer: $173k (5.5% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $1k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $5k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
Location reads 66/100 on livability (#467 in WI) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: crime A+, cost of living A+, housing A; Watch: employment D, amenities F, commute F.
Gillett School District (rural): math 33% / reading 35% proficiency, ranked #245 of 342 in WI (top 72%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
Zoned schools: Gillett Elementary (math 32% / reading 27%, grade F, #705 of 1,041 statewide, top 71%, 250 students, 63% FRL); Gillett Middle (math 37% / reading 47%, grade D-, #124 of 383 statewide, top 35%, 108 students, 57% FRL); Gillett High (math 15% / reading 24%, grade F, #376 of 483 statewide, top 79%, 159 students, 46% FRL).
Watch-outs: built in 1938 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
Market conditions: 16 active listings in the ZIP; 132 units permitted in Oconto County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
Oconto County population projected at -20% by 2050 — secular population decline; favor cash flow + early exit over multi-decade hold.
Questions for listing agent
Have any recent inspections been done? Can we get a copy of the seller's disclosures and any deferred-maintenance estimates?
Built in 1938 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
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.
