The Frio floor plan is as exciting for its features as it is for the tremendous value. A package of dynamite, this home boasts three bedrooms, two walk-in closets and two baths joined with a huge family room and a large kitchen/dining area. Upon entry of the home, you are met with access to your two-car garage. If you are needing the extra storage space, you are able to opt for an extra 1/2-car garage! You are then guided to the heart of the home - the sizable family room that faces the kitchen. This layout is ideal for hosting gatherings for all your friends and family. Opening up to the family room is your conveniently-designed kitchen and breakfast/dining room combination with entry to your walk-in utility room. The kitchen area is equipped with exclusive features like granite countertops, designer light fixtures, and flat-panel birch cabinets - these features alone are sure to please any crowd! Leading to your backyard from the breakfast/dining area, you can decide to include a covered patio if you like to get a breath of fresh air while being protected from the weather. The three large bedrooms are the perfect size for your family or guests when they come to visit. The second and third bedrooms are placed at the front of the home, with the third bedroom boasting a walk-in closet. The secondary bathroom lies conveniently between the two bedrooms. If you are looking to find the balance between work and play with a designated area to get things done, opt to transform the. ..

What this means for you Summary
Snapshot
- This is a 3-bed/2.0-bath single-family listed at $239k. Condition is rated good.
Deal economics
- At list price, monthly cash flow is $-381 ($-5k/yr) — negative.
- To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $219k (8.2% below list).
- To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $192k (19.7% below list).
- Recommended offer: $192k (19.7% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
Location & tenants
- Location reads 59/100 on livability (#1,121 in TX) — a working-class tenant base; expect higher turnover. Strengths: cost of living A+, crime A, housing A; Watch: schools D, amenities F, commute F.
- Crosby ISD (rural): math 39% / reading 40% proficiency, ranked #369 of 826 in TX (top 45%) — families likely to look elsewhere, expect single-tenant / working-renter base with shorter leases.
- Market conditions: Rents rising (+1.5%/yr); 1172 active listings in the ZIP; solid renter incomes; 29,883 units permitted in Harris County in 2024 (8,621 in 5+ unit buildings).
Forward outlook
- Local home prices are declining (-3.0%/yr); year-one equity from $2k of loan paydown is wiped out by about $8k of value loss. Plan a longer hold.
- Harris County population projected at +47% by 2050 — long-run rental-demand tailwind backs the buy-and-hold thesis.
Negotiation context
- It's been on market 114 days — a 9% lower offer ($217k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Risks & watch-outs
- Climate carrying-cost: severe wind risk, 99% chance of damaging wind over 30y; extreme-heat days projected 7→26/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Questions for the 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 114 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 20% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
- 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?
- 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.
- 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.
