Ever hear of a renovation loan? This solid home offers strong potential with a functional layout and room to add value. The main floor features a bedroom for convenient living, while two additional bedrooms are located upstairs along with a spacious landing area—ideal for a home office, playroom, or flex space. The unfinished basement provides excellent opportunity for expansion, with tall ceilings and a room previously used as a non-conforming bedroom. With some TLC, this space could be transformed into additional living area. Exterior highlights include durable vinyl siding and a backyard shed equipped with electricity and a concrete floor—perfect for storage, hobbies, or a workshop.

What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 3-bed/2.0-bath single-family listed at $94k.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $450 ($5k/yr) — positive.
- The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
- Meets the 1% rule at list price ($1k rent vs $94k).
- Recommended offer: $93k (1.5% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
- Cap rate 12.0% vs local median 3.2% in York — 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 80/100 on livability (#24 in NE, #1,666 nationally) — a professional / high-income tenant draw. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A+, health & safety A+; Watch: amenities F, commute F.
- York Public Schools (town): math 55% / reading 51% proficiency, ranked #55 of 111 in NE (top 50%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
- Market conditions: 74 active listings in the ZIP; 29 units permitted in York County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
Forward outlook
- Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $650 of loan paydown is wiped out by about $3k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
- York County population projected at +8% by 2050 — modest demand growth; plan on rents tracking national, not racing it.
- At projected returns (-3.0% appreciation + 3.0% rent growth), your $26k cash investment doubles in ~6 years — after that, you're playing with house money.
Negotiation context
- It's been on market 28 days — a 2% lower offer ($93k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
- Current owner paid $48k; list at $94k implies a 98% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.
Risks & watch-outs
- Watch-outs: built in 1928 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
Questions for the listing agent
- Built in 1928 — 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 A-rated — typically a magnet for longer-tenancy family renters. What's the average tenant stay here, and is there a school-zone premium baked into asking?
- 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.
