Rented normally, you'd make about $438 a month, and it holds up.

The rent is our own estimate — worth checking against two or three real local lettings. One month without a tenant wipes out about 3 months of that profit, so keep a buffer for gaps. It has been listed 305 days without selling, which is your argument for offering less.

Rented normally at the asking price, this stacks up on every check we can run — 20.40% return before costs on price.

Why it works

Monthly profit +$438/mo from completion — the no.1 reason to invest
This is the money left after the mortgage, the running costs and tax — not the rent.It assumes the rent we modelled and the empty weeks we assumed. Change either and it moves. Try your own numbers →
20.40% return before costs — above-market
Rent over price, before any costs. Useful for comparing streets; it is not money you keep.Two properties on the same yield can leave you very different amounts. See what you keep →

Why to be cautious

No rent comparables — estimate is a rule-of-thumb fallback, not market data. Verify the rent locally before offering.

Research, not financial advice · how we decide →

One card is deliberately absent. Renting it by the room — Only 2 bed — too small for an HMO (3+ unrelated tenants from 2+ households) without major reconfiguration.
