How the seller describes it: the price was cut.
At the starting numbers, this home is not a good fit for a DSCR loan. A typical DSCR lender wouldn’t make this loan and the deal loses money each month. The rent covers the monthly payment 0.72 times (DSCR 0.72), and you would put in $1,642 a month after vacancy and reserves.
For the rent to cover the payment 1.2 times, the price would need to be about $194,000, 58% under the asking price. That would be close to impossible to get. A rent of about $4,911 a month would cover the payment 1.2 times, above the likely range of $2,490 to $3,420. The home is in a municipal utility district (MUD): ENCANTO REAL UD adds 0.74% to the tax rate, and the county labels it a developing district whose rate can change.

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.
Last year’s value ($432,916) times this home’s rates comes to about $9,368, after their exemptions. You’d pay about $12,289, which is $2,920 more.
Why yours is likely higher:

: This home is in a MUD that taxes it at $0.7400 per $100, about $284 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.

Harris County appraisal district account 1359040020010 (22419 SAWMILL RANCH, SPRING, 77389), from Harris County’s Truth-in-Taxation record, read Oct 9, 2026. Exemptions on record: homestead. This is our estimate. Check it against the seller’s tax statement.
About $2,960/month likely $2,490 to $3,420
Fair A good starting point. Check it against a recent lease nearby. Why: the likely range is wide.
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.
15 homes, usually 0.8 miles away, renting for $2,295 to $4,200 (the middle one: $2,850). 8 of them were on the market in the last 90 days.
They rent for about $0.94 per square foot. At this home’s size, that’s about $3,125/month.
About 30 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. We left out 1 listing that has been up for months, which is usually an apartment complex’s standing ad.
The rent is 0.64% of the price each month, so the price is about 12.9 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 $11,578 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.
