Listing remarks MLS

Year round living, pet friendly and rent as you wish! It doesn't get any better as a home away from home or investment opportunity in Ocean City! Unlike many "condotels, " 921 Wesley allows owners to occupy their unit all year or rent with no rental minimums or management fees! This sun-filled 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo offers the ultimate beach-town lifestyle just two blocks from both the beach and boardwalk and the heart of downtown Asbury shopping and dining. Whether you're looking for a serene escape or a fun-filled weekend hub, this space is designed for easy enjoyment. Owners are free to live here year-round or rent and use as an investment as they see fit. Step inside to a bright, south-facing living area with a sleeper sofa and convenient dining area. The galley-style kitchen has all the amenities for efficient cooking and opens easily into the main living space. The full bath features a classic tub for unwinding, and the low-maintenance laminate flooring makes cleanup a breeze after sandy adventures. One of the standout features? It’s one of the few Condo buildings in town where pets are welcome—for owners only—which makes this spot feel even more like home. With room to comfortably sleep four, this condo makes the most of its space. You’ll also enjoy one designated parking spot, with additional guest parking available on a first-come, first-served basis—an added bonus in a high-demand area. The building offers shared conveniences like an on-site laundry room, elevator and bike storage, so you can focus more on beach days and boardwalk strolls, and less on chores. The low HOA fee and maintenance-free lifestyle make this the perfect mix of investment and enjoyment.

What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

• This is a 1-bed/1.0-bath condo listed at $290k. Condition is rated good.

Deal economics

• At list price, monthly cash flow is $3k ($39k/yr) — positive.
• The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
• Meets the 1% rule at list price ($7k rent vs $290k).
• Recommended offer: $264k (9.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
• Cap rate 19.7% vs local median 3.4% in Ocean City — 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 80/100 on livability (#72 in NJ, #1,762 nationally) — a professional / high-income tenant draw. Strengths: amenities A+, employment A+, health & safety A+; Watch: housing D+, cost of living F.
• Ocean City School District (urban): math 31% / reading 53% proficiency, ranked #212 of 472 in NJ (top 45%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
• Zoned schools: Ocean City Primary School (math 54% / reading 42%, grade D, #299 of 1,303 statewide, top 23%, 280 students, 31% FRL); Ocean City Intermediate School (math 26% / reading 49%, grade F, #217 of 431 statewide, top 51%, 370 students, 27% FRL); Ocean City High School (math 33% / reading 63%, grade D, #117 of 399 statewide, top 30%, 1,215 students, 13% FRL) — zoned schools at 24% FRL track the district average.
• Market conditions: 514 active listings in the ZIP; 2 comparable units currently listed for rent nearby; solid renter incomes; 877 units permitted in Cape May County in 2024 (35 in 5+ unit buildings).
• At $6,634/mo this rent would consume 78% of the median local household income ($102k/yr) — 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 $2k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $9k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
• Cape May County population projected at -24% 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 $81k cash investment doubles in ~3 years — after that, you're playing with house money.

Negotiation context

• It's been on market 105 days — a 9% lower offer ($264k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
• 7 sale attempts since 24y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $28k (9%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
• Current owner paid $140k; list at $290k implies a 107% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.

Risks & watch-outs

• Climate carrying-cost: major flood risk; severe wind risk, 80% chance of damaging wind over 30y; extreme-heat days projected 7→16/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.

Recommended offer $263,899 (9.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

1. It's been on market 105 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 9% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
2. Any open or pending special assessments — roof, HVAC, plumbing, elevator, façade? What's the per-unit balance and payoff schedule, and is the seller paying it off at close or rolling it to the buyer?
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 A-rated — typically a magnet for longer-tenancy family renters. What's the average tenant stay here, and is there a school-zone premium baked into asking?
6. 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.
7. 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.
8. How much new apartment / multifamily construction is in the pipeline within 1–3 miles? Heavy new supply (>2% of stock underway) typically softens rents 12–24 months out; light construction supports rent growth.

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.
