Listing remarks MLS

We are out of hold status while we were waiting for a few bids to come back. Fantastic value in this well maintained four family in Mount Pleasant featuring two renovated vacant units that are rent ready and ideal for investors looking to add immediate income. The other two units are occupied and professionally managed, currently generating $650 and $645 per month. Rents in the area are in the $700-$750 range so there is a lot of upside for the new buyer. The units boast original hard wood flooring, living rooms, and private bedrooms with an attached sunroom. Clean basement with updated electrical panels, PVC stacks, and some PEX plumbing. Perfect for 1031 exchanges, growing investment portfolios, or first-time multi-family buyers. Can be purchased in a package with three other four families 5516 S Grand (MLS# 25076144), 4127 Virginia (26016314), and 4124 Virginia Ave (25076198). Seller is selling as is. No seller financing deals will be considered. Video walk throughs of the occupied units are linked on the listing. The roof is being coated and re-flashed this week. There is a sewer lateral issue that the seller is willing to credit for with a reasonable offer. Those were taken prior to the tenants move in. Two vacant units and the basement can be shown. Occupied unit can be shown with an accepted contract. Schedule this one today!

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 4 × 4-bed/1.0-bath units multifamily listed at $220k.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $2k ($30k/yr) — positive. Per door: $615/mo.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • Meets the 1% rule at list price ($5k rent vs $220k).
  • Recommended offer: $200k (9.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
  • Cap rate 19.7% vs local median 5.0% in St. Louis — 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: area grade C — affects rentability + tenant quality, not the cash-flow math above.
  • St. Louis City (urban): math 10% / reading 18% proficiency, ranked #312 of 324 in MO (top 96%) — low school quality limits family demand, transient renter base, plan for 1-2y turnover; 80% free/reduced lunch — lower-income household profile, screen leases tightly.
  • Market conditions: Rents rising (+3.3%/yr); 125 active listings in the ZIP; 294 units permitted in St. Louis city in 2024 (227 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $4,870/mo this rent would consume 124% of the median local household income ($47k/yr) (locally 1364% 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 $2k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $7k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • St. Louis County population projected to shrink 6% by 2050 — rents likely to lag national; underwrite the cash flow, not the appreciation.
  • At projected returns (-3.0% appreciation + 3.3% rent growth), your $62k cash investment doubles in ~3 years — after that, you're playing with house money.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 100 days — a 9% lower offer ($200k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 2 sale attempts with the ask held roughly flat each time — persistent listings suggest the price (not the market) is what's stuck; bring a comps-based counter.
  • Current owner paid $144k; list at $220k implies a 53% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Watch-outs: built in 1928 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
  • Climate carrying-cost: extreme-heat days projected 7→21/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Recommended offer $200,109 (9.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 100 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 9% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  2. Can we see the unit-by-unit rent roll, current vacancy, and any below-market leases? What's the average tenancy length?
  3. What capital expenditures (roof, boiler, parking lot, exteriors) have been made in the last 5 years, and what's planned in the next 2?
  4. Built in 1928 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
  5. Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
  6. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
