Unit Mix & Available Rent Roll

Breakdown based on data provided in the FMLS listing

Listing provided building totals only
Units10
In-place monthly$10,500
Avg / unit$1,050
Annual GPI$126,000

FMLS shipped a single UnitTypes row (30 beds / 15 baths combined) with $10,500/mo. That figure is the building total, not one apartment. Unit-level mix is not in the listing.

Full detailed rent roll, tenant leases, and actual income/expense data not included in listing.

* Rent roll information is taken from the available FMLS listing data. Many multifamily listings do not include complete or verified tenant financials. Always verify actual rents, leases, and operating expenses during due diligence. HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents (ZIP-level payment standards) are published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and are shown for comparison only.

Coverage rules
  • GPI pre-fills only from MLS GI, a building-total UnitTypes row, or a rent roll covering ≥ 80% of doors.
  • A single sample rent is not averaged across the building.
  • Vacancy floor is max(5%, 100 − present occupancy in remarks).
  • Mgmt 8% at 8+ units, else 10%. Insurance $800/door. R&M $800/door.
  • Utility allowances turn on only when the who-pays grid or remarks say owner-paid.
  • SAFMR push is mix-weighted and hidden when the sample is extrapolated from thin coverage.
  • Commercial = 30% / 7% / 25-yr amort. Conventional = 25% / 7% / 30-yr. Cash = 100% equity, no debt service. CoC = NOI ÷ price.

Jeff’s Investment Take

Market data · October 2026

Working thesis

In-place DSCR 0.89x does not cover default debt — the listing only screens if the price or the rent moves.

  • Modeled debt service exceeds NOI at 0.89x. That is the binding constraint, not the badge.
  • In-place DSCR 0.89x below 1.0 on default debt
  • Owner-paid: water
  • GPI from listing building total, not a unit roll

Med. list $/door$195,667

Modeled from available FMLS data, unit mix, and operating assumptions and Rabun County benchmarks. DSCR and cash-on-cash use commercial terms (30% down / 7% / 25-yr amort) for 5+ units. Always verify with current rent roll and expenses.

Estimated offer

Price that clears 1.25× DSCR

Modeled basis so in-place NOI covers debt at 1.25× on default commercial terms. Not a bid. If you want to offer — including below this number or below list — start here. Jeff will request the rent roll and T-12 before anyone writes a number.

Estimated offer$1,066,879$106,688 / door · 29% below list $1,500,000
  • Solve: max purchase price where modeled NOI ÷ annual debt service = 1.25×.
  • Debt assumed at 30% down / 7% / 25-yr amort · commercial. Vacancy 5.0%, management 8% of EGI, modeled opex (tax record + insurance / R&M allowances + owner water).
  • List is $1,500,000. The 1.25× basis sits below ask, so financing at list is tight unless rents or expenses move.

Change GPI, expenses, or terms in the Investment Calculator to re-solve. Always confirm with the rent roll and T-12 before writing an offer.

Important Investment Information

Median estimated cap, cash-on-cash, and DSCR require MLS gross income or NOI, a dated broker package, a listing building total, or a unit rent roll covering at least 80% of doors. Thin records stay Incomplete — those yields are not printed in the hero or on cards. The calculator is a labeled scenario, not in-place income.

When a line is missing we use disclosed defaults only inside the calculator: vacancy floor of max(5%, 100 − present occupancy in remarks); management 8% of EGI at 8+ units otherwise 10%; insurance $800 per door; R&M $800 per door. Utility allowances turn on only if the who-pays grid or remarks say owner-paid (water $900–1,800 per door until a T-12). A single who-pays row does not set the building. We do not use an all-in “other” of $1,100 per door, and we do not average one sample rent across the building.

Yields published from listing building total $10,500/mo
