What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 2 × 2-bed/1.5-bath units multifamily listed at $599k.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $-562 ($-7k/yr) — negative. Per door: $-281/mo.
- To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $500k (16.6% below list).
- To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $406k (32.3% below list).
- Recommended offer: $406k (32.3% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
- Cap rate 5.2% vs local median 3.2% in Cumberland Hill — 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 74/100 on livability (#11 in RI, #4,666 nationally) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: crime A+, employment A+, housing A+; Watch: amenities F, commute F.
- Cumberland (suburban): math 40% / reading 52% proficiency, ranked #9 of 39 in RI (top 23%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases; only 18% free/reduced lunch — higher-income household profile.
- Zoned schools: John J. Mclaughlin Cumberland (math 37% / reading 42%, grade F, #46 of 167 statewide, top 30%, 424 students, 18% FRL); North Cumberland Middle (math 46% / reading 61%, grade C+, #4 of 57 statewide, top 5%, 635 students, 13% FRL); Cumberland High School (math 35% / reading 58%, grade D-, #15 of 58 statewide, top 26%, 1,446 students, 17% FRL) — zoned schools at 16% FRL track the district average.
- Market conditions: Rents soft (-1.5%/yr); 148 active listings in the ZIP; 2 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; high-income renter base; 776 units permitted in Providence County in 2024 (229 in 5+ unit buildings).
- This rent runs 41% of the median local income ($118k/yr) — at the standard rent-burdened threshold; future hikes will face affordability resistance.
Forward outlook
- Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $4k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $18k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
- Providence County population projected at +5% by 2050 — modest demand growth; plan on rents tracking national, not racing it.
Negotiation context
- It's been on market 137 days — a 12% lower offer ($527k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
- 2 sale attempts since 5y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $46k (7%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
- Current owner paid $396k; list at $599k implies a 51% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.
Risks & watch-outs
- Watch-outs: built in 1930 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
- Climate carrying-cost: major wind risk, 66% chance of damaging wind over 30y — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Questions for the 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 137 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 32% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
- Can we see the unit-by-unit rent roll, current vacancy, and any below-market leases? What's the average tenancy length?
- What capital expenditures (roof, boiler, parking lot, exteriors) have been made in the last 5 years, and what's planned in the next 2?
- Built in 1930 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
- 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.
- 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 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.
