Investor read
This is a 3-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $110k.
At list price, monthly cash flow is $-5 ($-56/yr) — negative.
To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $109k (0.7% below list).
To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $109k (1.1% below list).
It's been on market 23 days — a 2% lower offer ($108k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Recommended offer: $108k (1.5% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $761 of loan paydown is wiped out by about $3k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
Location reads: area grade D — affects rentability + tenant quality, not the cash-flow math above.
Nineveh-Hensley-Jackson United (rural): math 41% / reading 48% proficiency, ranked #93 of 301 in IN (top 31%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
Zoned schools: Indian Creek Elementary School (520 students, 39% FRL); Indian Creek Sr High School (math 37% / reading 67%, grade D+, #106 of 369 statewide, top 31%, 624 students, 30% FRL).
Watch-outs: property tax is 2.6% of price.
Market conditions: 76 active listings in the ZIP; 1,133 units permitted in Johnson County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
Johnson County population projected at +26% by 2050 — long-run rental-demand tailwind backs the buy-and-hold thesis.
12 sale attempts since 19y ago 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.
Questions for 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?
Built in 1979 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
Property tax is high relative to price — has the assessment been appealed recently, and will the sale trigger a re-assessment?
Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
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.
