What this means for you Summary

Snapshot

  • This is a 2 × 2-bed/1-bath units multifamily listed at $53k.

Deal economics

  • At list price, monthly cash flow is $1k ($15k/yr) — positive. Per door: $607/mo.
  • The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
  • Meets the 1% rule at list price ($2k rent vs $53k).
  • Recommended offer: $51k (3.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.

Location & tenants

  • Location reads 68/100 on livability (#885 in PA) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: crime A+, cost of living A+, housing A+; Watch: amenities F, commute F, employment F.
  • Central Greene SD (town): math 24% / reading 40% proficiency, ranked #434 of 539 in PA (top 80%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
  • Zoned schools: Waynesburg Central El School (math 21% / reading 43%, grade F, #1,094 of 1,518 statewide, top 73%, 765 students, 1% FRL); Miller Ms (math 14% / reading 37%, grade F, #414 of 512 statewide, top 81%, 229 students, 2% FRL); Waynesburg Central Hs (math 52% / reading 24%, grade F, #281 of 437 statewide, top 65%, 500 students, 1% FRL) — zoned schools average 1% FRL vs 38% district-wide (38 pts lower); this property's tenant base skews higher-income than the district average.
  • Market conditions: 41 active listings in the ZIP; 30 units permitted in Greene County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).

Forward outlook

  • In year one you build about $2k of equity ($366 loan paydown + $1k appreciation (2.2% local appreciation)).
  • Greene County population projected at -20% by 2050 — secular population decline; favor cash flow + early exit over multi-decade hold.
  • At projected returns (2.2% appreciation + 3.0% rent growth), your $15k cash investment doubles in ~1 year — after that, you're playing with house money.

Negotiation context

  • It's been on market 41 days — a 3% lower offer ($51k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
  • 7 sale attempts since 15y ago; this cycle's ask has dropped $4k (7%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
  • Current owner paid $28k; list at $53k implies a 89% gain — meaningful room to come down on a strong offer.

Risks & watch-outs

  • Watch-outs: built in 1901 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
  • Climate carrying-cost: major flood risk — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Recommended offer $51,313 (3.0% below list)

Questions for the listing agent

  1. It's been on market 41 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 3% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
  2. Can we see the unit-by-unit rent roll, current vacancy, and any below-market leases? What's the average tenancy length?
  3. What capital expenditures (roof, boiler, parking lot, exteriors) have been made in the last 5 years, and what's planned in the next 2?
  4. Built in 1901 — when were the roof, HVAC, electrical panel, plumbing, and water heater last replaced?
  5. Is there a deadline driving the sale (1031 exchange, divorce, estate, relocation)? That informs how much negotiation room exists.
  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.
