How investment potential is compared
The balanced score weights percentiles within the current listing sample: 50% higher estimated gross rental yield, 25% lower median asking price, and 25% shorter median days on market. Ties receive the same rank. Only ZIPs with at least 5 usable listings for every component are compared; at least two must qualify. This sample floor does not establish statistical confidence.
Listing age is a liquidity proxy, not completed-sale speed. Scores compare this market and date only; they do not measure future returns, neighborhood quality, appreciation, or risk. Individual metric colors use the same relative ranking, with higher yield, lower price, or shorter listing age receiving greener colors.
Gross yields use each for-sale property's modeled monthly rent × 12 ÷ asking price, before expenses or financing. Price and asking-rent medians come from separate listing cohorts.

Underwriting scenarios
Medians of individual for-sale property scenarios using each listing’s own asking price and rent estimate. These are modeled results, not observed investment returns.
- Median modeled monthly cash flowSample: 5,184 listings
- -$376
- Middle 50% cash-flow range
- -$698 to -$78
- Median modeled cash-on-cash return
- -7.79%
- Median debt-service coverage

- Median break-even occupancy
- 114.79%
- Share with positive modeled cash flow

Scenario assumptions: 20.00% down; 7.50% fixed interest for 30 years; 2.00% closing costs; 5.00% of scheduled rent for capital reserves. Management 10.00%, maintenance 5.00%, and vacancy 5.00% of scheduled rent; annual taxes and insurance 1.50% of asking price. No HOA, rehab, or appreciation is assumed. Break-even occupancy above 100% indicates the scenario cannot cover costs at the modeled rent.

How to read these numbers
Price and rent reflect distinct listing cohorts rather than paired properties. Modeled yields and cap rates apply standard operating expense baselines and exclude individual financing, income taxes, and future capital expenditures.
Compare published markets
Current published markets with the closest median asking prices, ordered by proportional price difference. This is a price comparison, not a ranking of investment quality:
- Evansville, IN· $275,000 median listing price · $1,195 median monthly rent
- Augusta, GA· $274,000 median listing price · $1,500 median monthly rent
- Montgomery, AL· $288,200 median listing price · $1,395 median monthly rent
- Wichita, KS· $289,900 median listing price · $1,425 median monthly rent
- Fort Wayne, IN· $290,000 median listing price · $1,400 median monthly rent
What these medians mean for a rental budget
The price and rent medians describe different listings. Combining them below is a hypothetical sensitivity exercise, not a representative property, observed return, or recommendation.
Using the latest available listing figures, with source data as of October 11, 2026.
At a $279,900 purchase and $1,726 monthly rent, assume 25% down, a 7.5% fixed mortgage for 30 years, 5% vacancy, operating costs equal to 30% of scheduled rent, and a separate 5% capital reserve. These expense and financing assumptions are illustrative, not measured local costs.
- Rent collected after vacancy
- $1,639
- Operating costs
- $518
- Capital reserve
- $86
- Monthly principal and interest
- $1,468
- Illustrative monthly cash flow
- -$433
Replace the teaching assumptions with actual taxes, insurance, HOA fees, maintenance, vacancy, and loan terms in the rental property cash flow calculator. This example excludes income taxes, appreciation, and acquisition costs.
