Investor read
This is a 4-bed/1.0-bath single-family listed at $44k. Condition is rated poor.
At list price, monthly cash flow is $712 ($9k/yr) — positive.
The deal already cash-flows at list — no discount required.
Meets the 1% rule at list price ($1k rent vs $44k).
It's been on market 237 days — a 12% lower offer ($39k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Recommended offer: $39k (12.0% below list) — sets the bar for market timing.
In year one you build about $2k of equity ($308 loan paydown + $1k appreciation (3.0% local appreciation)).
Location reads 67/100 on livability (#92 in SD) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: crime A+, cost of living A+, housing A+; Watch: employment D, amenities F, commute F.
Bon Homme School District 04-2 (rural): math 55% / reading 56% proficiency, ranked #15 of 59 in SD (top 25%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
Zoned schools: Bon Homme Middle School - 02 (math 52% / reading 57%, grade B-, #36 of 143 statewide, top 29%, 110 students, 24% FRL); Bon Homme High School - 01 (math 10% / reading 50%, grade F, #129 of 151 statewide, top 89%, 136 students, 24% FRL).
Zoned-school proficiency averages 42% at this address vs 56% district-wide (-13 pts) — the specific schools serving this property underperform the Bon Homme School District 04-2 average; the district grade overstates school quality for this exact location.
Watch-outs: built in 1900 — expect roof / HVAC / electrical / plumbing capex.
Market conditions: 8 active listings in the ZIP; 18 units permitted in Bon Homme County in 2024 (0 in 5+ unit buildings).
2 sale attempts; this cycle's ask has dropped $38k (46%) from the opening price — seller is motivated, your offer sets the floor, not the list.
At projected returns (3.0% appreciation + 3.0% rent growth), your $12k cash investment doubles in ~2 years — after that, you're playing with house money.
Climate carrying-cost: major flood risk — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Questions for listing agent
It's been on market 237 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 12% concession, seller financing, or rate buy-down credit?
Have any recent inspections been done? Can we get a copy of the seller's disclosures and any deferred-maintenance estimates?
Built in 1900 — 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.
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.
