Listing remarks MLS

Absolutely--there's a lot more to love about TRU homes beyond those already impressive features. For starters, these homes are designed with durability and long-term value in mind. High-quality construction materials and thoughtful engineering mean you're getting a home that's built to last, not just look good on move-in day. From sturdy framing to energy-efficient insulation, every detail is chosen to support comfortable, reliable living. Another standout benefit is flexibility. TRU homes come in a variety of layouts and sizes, making it easier to find a model that fits your lifestyle--whether you're a first-time buyer, a growing family, or someone looking to downsize without sacrificing comfort. Many floor plans include spacious primary suites, walk-in closets, and well-separated bedrooms for added privacy. Storage is also a big plus. Beyond generous kitchen cabinetry, you'll find smart storage solutions throughout the home, helping you stay organized without feeling cramped. Combined with open-concept living areas, this creates a space that feels both functional and inviting. Energy efficiency continues throughout the home as well. From modern windows that help regulate indoor temperatures to appliances designed to reduce energy use, TRU homes are built to help keep utility costs manageable--something that matters more than ever today. And finally, there's the overall livability factor. These homes are designed for real life: easy-to-clean surfaces, practical layouts, and features that support everyday routines. Whether you're hosting friends, relaxing after work, or managing a busy household, TRU homes make it all feel a little easier. Come check out Fox Lair Farms and the quiet peaceful setting only minutes from I-71.

🏗️ New construction. The $99,500 list price is a builder figure, so every metric below is computed on the value from comparable previous sales — $253,373.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

• This is a 3-bed/2.0-bath single-family listed at $100k. Condition is rated good.

Deal economics

• At list price, monthly cash flow is $-854 ($-10k/yr) — negative.
• The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
• Meets the 1% rule at list price ($2k rent vs $100k).
• Recommended offer: $91k (9.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
• Cap rate 2.2% vs local median 3.8% in Orient — below-typical yield; the buyer is paying a premium for something (appreciation thesis, condition, location) that the cap rate doesn't capture.

Location & tenants

• Location reads 52/100 on livability (#1,166 in OH) — a working-class tenant base; expect higher turnover. Strengths: cost of living A+, crime A, employment B; Watch: amenities F, commute F, housing F.
• Westfall Local (rural): math 49% / reading 66% proficiency, ranked #304 of 656 in OH (top 46%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
• Zoned schools: Westfall Elementary School (math 48% / reading 67%, grade C+, #721 of 1,584 statewide, top 46%, 648 students, 46% FRL); Westfall Middle School (math 55% / reading 63%, grade B, #280 of 654 statewide, top 44%, 340 students, 43% FRL); Westfall High School (math 37% / reading 67%, grade D+, #343 of 781 statewide, top 47%, 424 students, 36% FRL) — zoned schools at 42% FRL track the district average.
• Market conditions: 28 active listings in the ZIP; 312 units permitted in Pickaway County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).

Forward outlook

• Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $2k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $8k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
• Pickaway County population projected at +3% by 2050 — modest demand growth; plan on rents tracking national, not racing it.

Negotiation context

• It's been on market 103 days — a 9% lower offer ($91k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
• 5 sale attempts; this cycle's ask has dropped $6k (5%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.

Risks & watch-outs

• Watch-outs: property tax is 3.8% of price; HOA is 27% of rent.

Recommended offer $90,545 (9.0% 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 103 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 9% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
3. Property tax is high relative to price — has the assessment been appealed recently, and will the sale trigger a re-assessment?
4. What does the HOA fee cover, when was the last increase, and are there any pending special assessments or reserve-fund shortfalls?
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 F-rated, which usually means shorter tenancies and higher turnover. Who's the typical renter profile here, and what's been the actual vacancy rate?
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.
