Investor read
This is a 4-bed/2.0-bath single-family listed at $268k. Condition is rated good.
At list price, monthly cash flow is $-894 ($-11k/yr) — negative.
To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $187k (30.1% below list).
To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $166k (37.9% below list).
It's been on market 114 days — a 9% lower offer ($244k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Recommended offer: $166k (37.9% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $2k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $10k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
Location reads 65/100 on livability (#127 in AL) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A+; Watch: health & safety D, crime F, amenities F.
Enterprise City (town): math 40% / reading 60% proficiency, ranked #12 of 129 in AL (top 9%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
Zoned schools: Holly Hill Elementary School (math 50% / reading 70%, grade B-, #61 of 627 statewide, top 10%, 708 students, 44% FRL); Coppinville School (math 22% / reading 61%, grade F, #53 of 257 statewide, top 20%, 597 students, 54% FRL); Enterprise High School (math 34% / reading 37%, grade F, #45 of 305 statewide, top 14%, 2,117 students, 44% FRL).
Market conditions: Rents rising (+3.9%/yr); 568 active listings in the ZIP; solid renter incomes; 137 units permitted in Coffee County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
3 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.
Climate carrying-cost: severe wind risk, 99% chance of damaging wind over 30y; extreme-heat days projected 7→19/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Cap rate 2.9% vs local median 4.2% in Enterprise — below-typical yield; the buyer is paying a premium for something (appreciation thesis, condition, location) that the cap rate doesn't capture.
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?
It's been on market 114 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 38% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
What does the HOA fee cover, when was the last increase, and are there any pending special assessments or reserve-fund shortfalls?
Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
Crime grade is F in this area — have there been break-ins, vandalism, or insurance claims at this property in the last 3 years? What carrier currently insures it and at what premium?
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.
