Investor read
This is a 3-bed/2.0-bath manufactured listed at $219k.
At list price, monthly cash flow is $-362 ($-4k/yr) — negative.
To cash-flow at today's rent, offer at most $155k (29.2% below list).
To meet the 1% rule (rent ≥ 1% of price), the offer needs to be $120k (45.0% below list).
It's been on market 90 days — a 6% lower offer ($206k) is reasonable based on typical stale-listing flexibility.
Recommended offer: $120k (45.0% below list) — sets the bar for 1% rule.
In year one you build about $8k of equity ($2k loan paydown + $7k appreciation (3.0% local appreciation)).
Location reads 68/100 on livability (#467 in TX) — a middle-class / working-renter tenant base. Strengths: cost of living A+, housing A, crime A-; Watch: amenities F, commute F, health & safety F.
Redwater ISD (rural): math 58% / reading 48% proficiency, ranked #123 of 826 in TX (top 15%) — acceptable for families but not a draw, mixed tenant base, ~2y average lease.
Zoned schools: Redwater El (math 42% / reading 47%, grade F, #1,155 of 4,322 statewide, top 29%, 313 students, 54% FRL); Redwater Int (math 55% / reading 34%, grade D, #491 of 1,662 statewide, top 31%, 227 students, 62% FRL); Redwater H S (math 77% / reading 67%, grade B+, #95 of 1,632 statewide, top 7%, 339 students, 44% FRL) — zoned schools average 53% FRL vs 36% district-wide (17 pts higher); higher-poverty schools than district average — tighter screening recommended.
Market conditions: 40 active listings in the ZIP; 137 units permitted in Bowie County in 2024 (5 in 5+ unit buildings).
By year 5, paydown + projected appreciation supports a ~$35k cash-out refi (75% LTV) — recoverable capital for the next deal without selling this one.
Climate carrying-cost: major wind risk, 27% chance of damaging wind over 30y; major wildfire risk; extreme-heat days projected 7→23/yr by 2055 (HVAC capex compounding) — expect insurance premiums to compound above CPI over the hold.
Questions for 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 90 days. Have you received any prior offers? Is the seller open to a 45% 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.
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.
