Prime Corner Property in Downtown Perry – 0.53 Acres (4 City Lots) CASH OR RENOVATION LOAN ONLY! Manufactured Homes are allowed. Opportunity is knocking in the heart of Perry! This 0.53-acre property consists of four city lots with paved road frontage on three sides, offering exceptional access and flexibility for future plans. Situated on the corner of Center Street and Quail Street, the front half of the property features a block 3-bedroom, 1-bath home that sustained damage during Hurricane Idalia and is currently unlivable. Also on the front lot is a solid block shed with two separate sections—one side equipped with a large double garage door and the other with a standard entry door. The front portion is partially fenced and connected to city utilities. The back two lots, located on the corner of Quail Street and Sparrow Street, are cleared of structures and fencing, with paved road frontage and no current utilities in place—offering a blank canvas for redevelopment, expansion, or investment potential. Mature shade trees remain, reminding visitors of what was once a beautiful homestead filled with gardens and flowers. Whether you’re looking to renovate, rebuild, divide, or develop, this oversized in-town parcel provides rare flexibility. Conveniently located in Downtown Perry: • Just 1 mile to Walmart • 2 miles to the Taylor County Courthouse • Close to walking and biking areas With corner frontage on multiple paved streets and city utilities already in place on the front parcel, this property presents a unique opportunity for investors, builders, or visionaries ready to restore its charm. NOTE: Owner currently lives in camper on the property and camper is NOT included in the price.

What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 3-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $75k.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $276 ($3k/yr) — positive.
- The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
- Meets the 1% rule at list price ($1k rent vs $75k).
- Recommended offer: $69k (9.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
- Cap rate 10.7% vs local median 3.8% in Perry — 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 70/100 on livability (#420 in FL) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A+, health & safety A+; Watch: schools D, amenities F, commute F.
- Taylor (rural): math 44% / reading 42% proficiency, ranked #59 of 73 in FL (top 81%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases; 64% free/reduced lunch — lower-income household profile, screen leases tightly.
- Market conditions: 150 active listings in the ZIP; 48 units permitted in Taylor County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
Forward outlook
- Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $521 of loan paydown is wiped out by about $2k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
- Taylor County population projected at -14% by 2050 — secular population decline; favor cash flow + early exit over multi-decade hold.
- At projected returns (-3.0% appreciation + 3.0% rent growth), your $21k cash investment doubles in ~8 years — after that, you're playing with house money.
Negotiation context
- It's been on market 110 days — a 9% lower offer ($69k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Risks & watch-outs
- Watch-outs: built in 1950 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
- Climate carrying-cost: severe wind risk, 99% chance of damaging wind over 30y; extreme-heat days projected 7→21/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Questions for the listing agent
- It's been on market 110 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 9% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
- Built in 1950 — 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.
- 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?
- 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.

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.
