# 1210 Strawberry Park Ln, Katy, TX 77450

For sale at $244,900. 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1,410 sq ft, built 1980. Updated Oct 30, 2026.

## Summary

At the starting numbers, this home is a possible fit for a DSCR loan, with trade-offs. You would get $200 a month left over after vacancy and reserves, so the return on your cash is middling at 5.1% a year. Most lenders would make the loan on good terms since the rent covers the payment 1.38 times. Getting this price would be hard.

At your price, the rent already covers the payment 1.2 times. The home is in a municipal utility district where HC MUD 81 adds 0.25% to the tax rate, and the seller's tax bill of $4,114 is lower than an investor's estimated $4,977 a year because the taxable value resets toward the purchase price after a sale.

## Before you rely on these numbers

- 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.
