Opportunity knocks! Whether you're a first-time buyer looking for the perfect starter home, or you're an investor looking for a turnkey opportunity, you've just found your place. This home has been well-maintained. The interior was recently painted, and the furnace and air conditioner are only 2-3 years old and there's also off-street parking. This adorable little gem is tucked off the beaten path in East McKeesport where you're close to the Route 30 and 48 corridors, but there's no noise or traffic here!
Key facts
- Off street parking
- Close to route 30

What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 2-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $84k.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $179 ($2k/yr) — positive.
- The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
- Meets the 1% rule at list price ($998 rent vs $84k).
- Recommended offer: $81k (3.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
Location & tenants
- Location reads 70/100 on livability (#752 in PA) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A+, crime B; Watch: employment D+, amenities F, commute F.
- East Allegheny SD (suburban): math 14% / reading 30% proficiency, ranked #485 of 539 in PA (top 90%) — low school quality limits family demand, transient renter base, plan for 1-2y turnover.
- Market conditions: 20 active listings in the ZIP; 12 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; rentals at typical pace (median 18d on market — plan ~3-4 weeks tenant-placement turnaround); 2,996 units permitted in Allegheny County in 2024 (1,588 in 5+ unit buildings).
Forward outlook
- Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $577 of loan paydown is wiped out by about $3k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
Negotiation context
- It's been on market 58 days — a 3% lower offer ($81k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
- 8 sale attempts since 28y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $11k (12%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
- Current owner paid $22k; list at $84k implies a 280% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.
Risks & watch-outs
- Watch-outs: built in 1940 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
Questions for the listing agent
- It's been on market 58 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 3% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
- Built in 1940 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
- Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
- 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.

Opportunity knocks! If you're looking to grow your portfolio, you've just found your next place. This home has been well-maintained. The interior was recently painted, and the furnace and air conditioner are only 2-3 years old. There's off-street parking, and the street is quiet despite its close proximity to the Route 30 corridor. The cherry on top is that the tenant is in place until next year with a lease that includes tenant paying for utilities, responsible for lawn care and snow removal making this a true turnkey, cash flowing opportunity for some lucky investor.

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.
