🏗️ New construction. The $85,000 list price is a builder figure, so every metric below is computed on the value from comparable previous sales — $145,591.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 3-bed/2.0-bath manufactured listed at $85k. Condition is rated fair.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $-443 ($-5k/yr) — negative.
  • To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $81k (4.2% below list).
  • To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $71k (16.2% below list).
  • Recommended offer: $71k (16.2% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.

Location & tenants

  • Location reads 66/100 on livability (#1,031 in PA) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, health & safety A, housing B+; Watch: amenities F, commute F, employment D-.
  • Somerset Area SD (town): math 40% / reading 61% proficiency, ranked #185 of 539 in PA (top 34%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
  • Zoned schools: Maple Ridge El Sch (522 students, 53% FRL); Somerset Area Jr-Sr Hs (math 39% / reading 66%, grade C-, #110 of 437 statewide, top 25%, 1,088 students, 44% FRL).
  • Market conditions: 131 active listings in the ZIP; 1 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; 78 units permitted in Somerset County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • This rent is only 15% of the median local income ($56k/yr) — well below the 30% rent-burden line; pricing power to push rent on renewal without tenant pushback.

Forward outlook

  • Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $1k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $4k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • Somerset County population projected at -21% by 2050 — secular population decline; favor cash flow + early exit over multi-decade hold.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 1004 days — a 12% lower offer ($75k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Watch-outs: property tax is 2.6% of price.
Recommended offer $71,225 (16.2% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. 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?
  2. It's been on market 1004 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 16% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  3. Have any recent inspections been done? Can we get a copy of the seller's disclosures and any deferred-maintenance estimates?
  4. Property tax is high relative to price — has the assessment been appealed recently, and will the sale trigger a re-assessment?
  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. Schools are B-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?
  8. 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?
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.

Condition & rehab AI · 12 photos

Fair 45/100 Moderate rehab Est. rehab $42,000–$75,600 screening

This manufactured home requires moderate renovations to update the kitchen and bathrooms, and freshen the interior. The home is in fair condition with good curb appeal and a good roof, making it a good investment opportunity.

Repairs flagged

  • Minor kitchen cabinets — slight wear
  • Minor bathroom fixtures — standard fixtures
  • Moderate kitchen appliances — outdated and worn

Value-add opportunities

  • Both update kitchen appliances — modern appliances improve both resale and rental value
  • Both paint interior walls — fresh paint enhances curb appeal and interior aesthetics
  • Both replace dated flooring — new flooring improves both resale and rental value

ⓘ Rehab cost is a screening estimate — Moderate scope × the home's square footage at US $/sqft rules of thumb (the same model as the Flip Finder). Get contractor quotes + a written scope before underwriting.
