Tough terms
Loan health
27/100
A few lenders would likely make this loan. The weak spot is down payment (25%).
When the rent doesn’t cover the payment, most DSCR lenders cap the loan at 70% of the price. At 25% down, only a few lenders would likely make this loan. Putting 30% down opens it to most lenders. So does a price or rent where the rent covers the payment.

Negotiation difficulty
86/100
Your price is 50% under the asking price. Getting a seller to agree would be hard, unless the home needs major work.
For the rent to cover the payment 1.2 times, the price would need to be about $130,000, 86% under the asking price. That would be close to impossible to get.
Why this score
This seller may come down about 2%: priced over the estimated home value. Working against you: the seller sounds firm.

Fair Before you rely on these numbers
Our take
At the starting numbers, this home is not a good fit for a DSCR loan. You would put in $1,955 a month after vacancy and reserves, so the return on your cash is weak. Fewer lenders would make this loan because the down payment is 25%. Getting this price would be hard.
For the rent to cover the payment 1.2 times, the price would need to be about $130,000, 86% under the asking price. That would be close to impossible to get. A rent of about $6,539 a month would also work, but that is above the likely range. The MUD on this home adds 0.52% to the tax rate, which widens the gap. Before you make an offer, ask a local leasing agent what homes like this one have actually leased for.

Does the rent cover the loan?
At the starting price of $475,000 with 25% down, the rent of $4,220 a month covers the monthly payment 0.77 times. The rent doesn’t cover the monthly payment. Most lenders would want a lower price or more money down.

How the estimated rate is built
DSCR lenders price a loan from a starting rate plus add-ons. These come from published lender pricing as of Oct 8, 2026. A real lender’s quote will differ.
| Starting rate | 6.690% |
|---|---|
| Credit score 720–739 | +0.100% |
| Loan of 75% of the price or less | +0.250% |
| Loan size $150k+ | +0.000% |
| Rent coverage 0.75–0.99 | +0.875% |
| Estimated rate | 7.915% |
Where these rates come from
Starting rate and DSCR/LTV add-ons from a 12-lender DSCR panel sheet (dscrcapitalpartners.com, week of 2026-09-21); credit-score and loan-size add-ons from OfferMarket’s published DSCR pricing (offermarket.us); cross-checked against OfferMarket’s DSCR rate index and DSCR Authority’s rate tables (2026-10-01). Read 2026-10-08.
What it would take to reach 1.2
A price of about $130,261 at this rent (taxes stay at the county’s value, which is higher than that price), or a rent of about $6,539 a month at this price.
Most good DSCR deals are bought below the estimated value. Use this as the price to aim for when you make an offer. At about $103,827, it would reach 1.25.
Show me the math
- Loan
- price × (1 − down payment) = $475,000 × (1 − 25%) = $356,250, a of 75%
- Loan payment (principal and interest)
- $356,250 at 7.915%, paid off evenly over 30 years = $2,593 a month
- Full monthly payment (PITIA)
- $2,593 + taxes $1,825 + insurance $956 + HOA $75 = $5,449
- DSCR
- rent ÷ payment = $4,220 ÷ $5,449 = 0.77 (the full rent, nothing off for empty months, as lenders count it)
- Rent you actually collect
- rent × (1 − vacancy) = $4,220 × (1 − 8%) = $3,882
- Set aside each month
- $3,882 × (0% management + 5% repairs + 5% big replacements) = $388
- Monthly cash flow
- $3,882 − $388 − $5,449 = −$1,955
- Cash to close
- down payment $118,750 + closing costs 3% ($14,250) + renovation $10,000 = $143,000
- Cash-on-cash return
- 12 × −$1,955 ÷ $143,000 = −16.4% a year

Texas writes tax rates of value. This is what you’d pay as a landlord once the county reassesses the home: your price or the county’s market value, whichever is higher, times every tax rate on this home. There are no exemptions, because they don’t transfer to an investor. Lenders figure taxes the same way.

: This home is in a MUD that taxes it at $0.5200 per $100, about $393 a month of the total. The MUD sold bonds to build the neighborhood’s water, sewer and drainage, and homeowners repay them through this tax. The rate usually falls as the bonds are paid off, but it can stay high for years in a new neighborhood.

Harris County appraisal district account 1245750010027 (12103 CYPRESS CREEK LAKES, CYPRESS, 77433), from Harris County’s Truth-in-Taxation record, read Oct 26, 2026. Exemptions on record: homestead. This is our estimate. Check it against the seller’s tax statement.
What it could rent for
About $4,220/month likely $3,330 to $5,100
Rough Treat this as a ballpark. Ask a local leasing agent for recent leases before you rely on it. Why: the likely range is wide.
See what this rent is based on
These are : RentCast’s estimate for a long-term lease, built from 15 similar rentals nearby. The range is where the rent should land 85% of the time. Rents in Greater Houston have been flat, so plan around the middle or lower part of the range until a real lease says otherwise.
The rentals it compared
15 homes, usually 1.2 miles away, renting for $2,890 to $6,000 (the middle one: $3,600). 6 of them were on the market in the last 90 days.
They rent for about $1.00 per square foot. At this home’s size, that’s about $6,660/month.
How long nearby rentals took to lease
About 48 days (the middle of the rentals that left the market). 3 of the 15 are still listed.
Every week a rental sits empty is a week without rent. The report’s vacancy setting (8% of the year) covers time like this between tenants.
Rent compared with the price
The rent is 0.89% of the price each month, so the price is about 9.4 years of rent.
A quick check some investors use is the “1% rule”: monthly rent of at least 1% of the price. It’s a rule of thumb. Lenders don’t use it; the DSCR, taxes and insurance decide whether a deal works.

Zone X (area of minimal flood hazard) is low risk on FEMA’s map. Flood insurance is optional, but many Greater Houston homes that flooded in Hurricane Harvey were outside the high-risk zones, so many landlords buy it anyway.
The zone comes from FEMA’s current flood map. FEMA’s draft maps for Harris County put more homes in the high-risk zone, so a home near a bayou may change zones. If the seller has a federal flood policy, ask to take it over at closing. It can keep a lower price. Most flood policies come from the .
No. Wind and hail are part of the regular policy here (in Harris County only La Porte, Morgan’s Point, Pasadena, Seabrook and Shoreacres, east of Highway 146, are in TWIA’s area).
: Policies here charge a percent of the home’s coverage for wind and hail claims: 2% is standard, about $23,303 on this home, and 3% to 5% nearer the coast. That’s what you’d pay first after a hailstorm, so keep it in your savings.

Before you rely on these numbers
For this home
- The listing sites we checked describe this home a little differently. We used the one that matches the local listing service. The tax details show which figures came from where.
- The county tax office’s website didn’t answer, so the seller’s last tax bill isn’t shown next to yours. Your tax estimate isn’t affected. Ask the seller for their latest tax statement.
For every report
- Every number here is an estimate. Before you make an offer, get a lender’s quote, an insurance quote, and a recent lease nearby to check the rent.
- Property taxes reset after a purchase. The seller’s exemptions and caps don’t transfer, and the taxable value moves toward your price.
- Get a real landlord insurance quote. Prices vary a lot by ZIP code, roof age and flood zone.
- Check the rent against a recent lease nearby. Lenders use the lower of your signed lease and the appraiser’s rent estimate.
- Texas doesn’t make sale prices public, so every home value estimate here is rough. Ask an agent for recent sales nearby before you make an offer.
