Investor read
This is a 3-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $240k.
At list price, monthly cash flow is $-375 ($-4k/yr) — negative.
To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $174k (27.6% below list).
To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $140k (41.7% below list).
It's been on market 49 days — a 3% lower offer ($233k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Recommended offer: $140k (41.7% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
In year one you build about $16k of equity ($2k loan paydown + $14k appreciation (6.0% local appreciation)).
Location reads 58/100 on livability (#197 in ID) — a working-class tenant base; expect higher turnover. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A+; Watch: amenities F, commute F, employment F.
Bruneau-Grand View Joint School District (rural): math 25% / reading 35% proficiency, ranked #123 of 133 in ID (top 92%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
Zoned schools: Grand View Elementary School (math 54% / reading 44%, grade D, #148 of 357 statewide, top 47%, 102 students, 40% FRL); Rimrock Jr/Sr High School (math 27% / reading 47%, grade F, #100 of 169 statewide, top 61%, 161 students, 36% FRL) — zoned schools average 38% FRL vs 53% district-wide (15 pts lower); this property's tenant base skews higher-income than the district average.
Zoned-school proficiency averages 43% at this address vs 30% district-wide (+13 pts) — the actual schools serving this property are materially stronger than the Bruneau-Grand View Joint School District average implies; a family-tenant draw the district grade alone would hide.
Watch-outs: flood insurance adds $66/mo; built in 1920 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
Market conditions: 8 active listings in the ZIP; 1 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; 40 units permitted in Owyhee County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
Owyhee County population projected at -15% by 2050 — secular population decline; favor cash flow + early exit over multi-decade hold.
By year 3, paydown + projected appreciation supports a ~$40k cash-out refi (75% LTV) — recoverable capital for the next deal without selling this one.
Climate carrying-cost: severe flood risk; extreme-heat days projected 7→19/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
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 49 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 42% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
Built in 1920 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
What's the actual annual flood-insurance premium (NFIP or private), and is the property in a SFHA with mandatory coverage?
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?
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.
