Listing remarks MLS

Incredible opportunity for a very large double just off Freret Street. Each unit is on its own floor, featuring a spacious sunroom, living room, separate dining room, and generous kitchen. On the first floor, the kitchen has custom wood cabinetry to the ceiling, and the slate floors were thoughtfully repurposed from a French Quarter roof. The bathroom was remodeled in 2026 to provide a fresh look while preserving the original storage cabinets. Room for a stackable washer/dryer was also built into the bathroom. All other rooms have hardwood floors, including underneath the bedroom carpets, and charming details can be found throughout. Complete with a screened in porch, the downstairs alone has 1735 total square feet. Upstairs, accessed through a separate entrance, enters into the living room. With a similar layout, the upper unit is distinguished by its butlers pantry and separate laundry room. It also includes 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and 1735 total sqft with the screened in porch (1531 without). Each unit is separately metered. The property has a driveway and a very large back patio area, making this a low maintenance property after doing touch ups. Recent updates include a 2026 upgrade to pex for downstairs plumbing and the sewer line, repaired gas line in 2026, and new water heaters in 2025 and 2021. Foundation repairs were completed in 2025 per Gurtler Bros recommendations. Come see this delightful property and become a part of the vibrant Freret neighborhood!

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 6-bed/2.0-bath multifamily listed at $425k.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $587 ($7k/yr) — positive.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • Meets the 1% rule at list price ($5k rent vs $425k).
  • Recommended offer: $400k (6.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
  • Cap rate 8.1% vs local median 4.4% in New Orleans — 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 81/100 on livability (#3 in LA, #1,383 nationally) — a professional / high-income tenant draw. Strengths: amenities A+, commute A+, health & safety A+; Watch: crime C-, employment D.
  • Orleans Parish (urban): math 11% / reading 27% proficiency, ranked #69 of 98 in LA (top 70%) — low school quality limits family demand, transient renter base, plan for 1-2y turnover; 68% free/reduced lunch — lower-income household profile, screen leases tightly.
  • Market conditions: Rents soft (-1.4%/yr); 280 active listings in the ZIP; 10 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; rentals lingering (median 45d on market — plan ~5-8 weeks vacancy on turnover, expect pricing pressure); 60% of comp listings sitting > 30 days — soft ceiling on asking rent; solid renter incomes; 710 units permitted in Orleans Parish in 2024 (244 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $4,536/mo this rent would consume 60% of the median local household income ($90k/yr) (locally 1756% 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 $3k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $13k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • Orleans County population projected at +61% by 2050 — long-run rental-demand tailwind backs the buy-and-hold thesis.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 65 days — a 6% lower offer ($400k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 2 sale attempts; this cycle's ask has dropped $25k (6%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
  • Current owner paid $65k; list at $425k implies a 554% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Watch-outs: flood insurance adds $66/mo; built in 1940 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
  • Climate carrying-cost: severe flood risk; severe wind risk, 99% chance of damaging wind over 30y; extreme-heat days projected 7→21/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Recommended offer $399,500 (6.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 65 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 6% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  2. Built in 1940 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
  3. What's the actual annual flood-insurance premium (NFIP or private), and is the property in a SFHA with mandatory coverage?
  4. Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
  5. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. How much new apartment / multifamily construction is in the pipeline within 1–3 miles? Heavy new supply (>2% of stock underway) typically softens rents 12–24 months out; light construction supports rent growth.

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.
