Investor read
This is a 2-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $46k. Condition is rated poor.
At list price, monthly cash flow is $702 ($8k/yr) — positive.
The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
Meets the 1% rule at list price ($1k rent vs $46k).
It's been on market 43 days — a 3% lower offer ($45k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Recommended offer: $45k (3.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $320 of loan paydown is wiped out by about $1k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
Location reads 41/100 on livability (#1,195 in OH) — a working-class tenant base; expect higher turnover. Strengths: cost of living A+, crime A; Watch: health & safety C-, schools F, amenities F.
Alexander Local (rural): math 44% / reading 57% proficiency, ranked #440 of 656 in OH (top 67%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
Market conditions: 29 active listings in the ZIP; solid renter incomes; 5 units permitted in Athens County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
Athens County population projected at +4% by 2050 — modest demand growth; plan on rents tracking national, not racing it.
At projected returns (-3.0% appreciation + 3.0% rent growth), your $13k cash investment doubles in ~2 years — after that, you're playing with house money.
Questions for listing agent
It's been on market 43 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 3% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
Have any recent inspections been done? Can we get a copy of the seller's disclosures and any deferred-maintenance estimates?
Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
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?
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.
