Loan health

31/100

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

85/100

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 $84,000, 75% under the asking price. That would be close to impossible to get.

Why this score

This seller may come down about 3%: listed 13 days, priced over the estimated home value. Working against you: the seller sounds firm.

Our take

At the starting numbers, this home is not a good fit for a DSCR loan. You would put in $497 a month after vacancy and reserves, so the return on your cash is weak. Fewer lenders would make this loan, and getting this price would be hard. The home is built 2024.

For the numbers to work, the price would need to be about $84,000, which would be close to impossible to get. A rent of about $2,713 a month would also work, but that is above the likely range of $1,860 to $2,410. Putting 30% down would open the loan to most lenders. The MUD adds 1.10% to the tax rate, which is a big part of the gap. Before you make an offer, ask a local leasing agent what homes like this one have actually leased for.

At $83,530 the rent covers the loan on typical terms.

$165,000

Starts at half of the asking price ($330,000). No price down to half gets the rent to cover the payment 1.2 times with at least 5% a year on your cash. Now 50% under the asking price and 49% under the estimated home value.

  • This seller may come down only about 3%, so a price this low will be much harder to get.
  • The rent doesn’t cover the payment at this price, so most DSCR lenders want 30% down.

At this rent, a price of about $83,530 gets the rent to cover the payment 1.2 times. Taxes would stay at the county’s value, which is higher.

Does the rent cover the loan?

At the starting price of $165,000 with 25% down, the rent of $2,130 a month covers the monthly payment 0.94 times. The rent doesn’t cover the monthly payment. Most lenders would want a lower price or more money down.

What it would take to reach 1.2

A price of about $83,530 at this rent (taxes stay at the county’s value, which is higher than that price), or a rent of about $2,713 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 $70,680, it would reach 1.25.

Show me the math
Loan
price × (1 − down payment) = $165,000 × (1 − 25%) = $123,750, a of 75%
Loan payment (principal and interest)
$123,750 at 8.115%, paid off evenly over 30 years = $918 a month
Full monthly payment (PITIA)
$918 + taxes $956 + insurance $286 + HOA $100 = $2,261
DSCR
rent ÷ payment = $2,130 ÷ $2,261 = 0.94 (the full rent, nothing off for empty months, as lenders count it)
Rent you actually collect
rent × (1 − vacancy) = $2,130 × (1 − 8%) = $1,960
Set aside each month
$1,960 × (0% management + 5% repairs + 5% big replacements) = $196
Monthly cash flow
$1,960 − $196 − $2,261 = −$497
Cash to close
down payment $41,250 + closing costs 3% ($4,950) + renovation $10,000 = $56,200
Cash-on-cash return
12 × −$497 ÷ $56,200 = −10.61% a year

Local details behind the numbers

Your property taxes as an investor

About $11,476 a year ($956 a month) on a taxable value of $344,716 (the county’s market value, which is higher than the starting price of $165,000)

3.33% a year ($3.3291 per $100, 2026 rates, with some districts still on last year’s rate)

See the tax details

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.

The seller’s bill vs. yours

Last year’s value ($352,167) times this home’s rates comes to about $11,592, before any exemptions, so their real bill is lower. You’d pay about $11,476, which is $116 less.

: This home is in a MUD that taxes it at $1.5000 per $100, about $431 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. The county lists it as a developing district, so its rate can rise as it sells more bonds. Ask the seller for the MUD notice they signed when they bought.

What it could rent for

About $2,130/month likely $1,860 to $2,410

Fair A good starting point. Check it against a recent lease nearby. Why: the likely range is wide, the nearby rentals are far away.

Each dot is a nearby rental that RentCast compared with this home. Point at a dot for details, or see the table below. The shaded band is where the rent should land 85% of the time.

The rentals it compared

15 homes, usually 1.3 miles away, renting for $1,800 to $2,700 (the middle one: $2,100). 2 of them were on the market in the last 90 days.

They rent for about $1.07 per square foot. At this home’s size, that’s about $2,140/month.

How long nearby rentals took to lease

About 31 days (the middle of the rentals that left the market).

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 1.29% of the price each month, so the price is about 6.5 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 $6,983 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.
