Corner Double Lot Near Baylor University about 1 Mile from Campus & Downtown Waco. Prime Development Opportunity Near Baylor Located just one mile from Baylor University, this property offers a rare opportunity in one of Waco’s fastest-growing areas. The sale includes two adjacent lots at the corner of S 16th St and Flint Ave, providing excellent potential for redevelopment, new construction, or investment. The property currently features an older home that will require significant renovation and is being sold as-is, making it an ideal candidate for a full restoration project or a new build. With strong demand for housing near the university, the site could be well suited for student housing, multi-family units, or a new single-family development (subject to zoning and city approvals). This highly desirable location places you just minutes from Magnolia Market at the Silos and the revitalized Downtown Waco, both known for their shopping, dining, and tourism appeal. Easy access to Interstate 35 makes commuting convenient while maintaining close proximity to Baylor and central Waco. The offering also includes the neighboring parcel at 1608 Flint Ave (Property ID 171914), providing additional space and flexibility for future development. Driving Directions: From Interstate 35, head west on 17th Street, turn right onto Flint Ave, and the property will be located on the corner of Flint Ave and S 16th

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 3-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $150k.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $223 ($3k/yr) — positive.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • Meets the 1% rule at list price ($2k rent vs $150k).
  • Recommended offer: $141k (6.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
  • Cap rate 8.1% vs local median 3.9% in Waco — 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 (#166 in TX, #4,378 nationally) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A+, health & safety A+; Watch: crime D, commute F, employment D-.
  • Waco ISD (urban): math 20% / reading 24% proficiency, ranked #773 of 826 in TX (top 94%) — low school quality limits family demand, transient renter base, plan for 1-2y turnover; 81% free/reduced lunch — lower-income household profile, screen leases tightly.
  • Zoned schools: Bell'S Hill El (math 31% / reading 31%, grade F, #2,429 of 4,322 statewide, top 57%, 760 students, 96% FRL); Cesar Chavez Middle (math 16% / reading 24%, grade F, #1,428 of 1,662 statewide, top 87%, 840 students, 94% FRL); University H S (math 39% / reading 31%, grade F, #954 of 1,632 statewide, top 59%, 1,678 students, 89% FRL).
  • Market conditions: Rents rising (+1.9%/yr); 318 active listings in the ZIP; 40 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; rentals at typical pace (median 24d on market — plan ~3-4 weeks tenant-placement turnaround); lower-income renter base — watch delinquency; 1,014 units permitted in McLennan County in 2024 (200 in 5+ unit buildings).
  • At $1,603/mo this rent would consume 46% of the median local household income ($42k/yr) (locally 3883% of renters already pay >50% of income on rent) — very limited rent-growth headroom before tenants either downsize or default.

Forward outlook

  • Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $1k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $4k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
  • McLennan County population projected at +17% by 2050 — long-run rental-demand tailwind backs the buy-and-hold thesis.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 88 days — a 6% lower offer ($141k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 4 sale attempts; this cycle's ask has dropped $40k (21%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Watch-outs: built in 1925 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
  • Climate carrying-cost: major wind risk, 60% chance of damaging wind over 30y; extreme-heat days projected 7→23/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Recommended offer $141,000 (6.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 88 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 6% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  2. Built in 1925 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
  3. Why hasn't it sold? Are there any deal-killer items the seller is aware of (foundation, flood, title, zoning, code violations)?
  4. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  5. Schools are D-rated, which usually means shorter tenancies and higher turnover. Who's the typical renter profile here, and what's been the actual vacancy rate?
  6. Crime grade is D in this area — have there been break-ins, vandalism, or insurance claims at this property in the last 3 years? What carrier currently insures it and at what premium?
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.

Prime Development Opportunity Near Baylor Located just one mile from Baylor University, this property offers a rare opportunity in one of Waco’s fastest-growing areas. The sale includes two adjacent lots at the corner of S 16th St and Flint Ave, providing excellent potential for redevelopment, new construction, or investment. The property currently features an older home that will require significant renovation and is being sold as-is, making it an ideal candidate for a full restoration project or a new build. With strong demand for housing near the university, the site could be well suited for student housing, multi-family units, or a new single-family development (subject to zoning and city approvals). This highly desirable location places you just minutes from Magnolia Market at the Silos and the revitalized Downtown Waco, both known for their shopping, dining, and tourism appeal. Easy access to Interstate 35 makes commuting convenient while maintaining close proximity to Baylor and central Waco. The offering also includes the neighboring parcel at 1608 Flint Ave (Property ID 171914), providing additional space and flexibility for future development. Driving Directions: From Interstate 35, head west on 17th Street, turn right onto Flint Ave, and the property will be located on the corner of Flint Ave and S 16th

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.
