Representative stock photography of Phoenix-metro residential product. These are not photographs of this asset — there is no such asset. This panel publishes a code and a submarket and nothing finer, because a plausible house number on a real street is a real house, and putting an invented price under a photograph of one is the thing this whole demonstration exists to avoid.
The read
Priced for condition. Roof and condenser are both past the point where a lender or an insurer will ignore them; budget both in year one.
- Deferred maintenance disclosed
- Original kitchen
- Large rear yard
- No HOA

Underwrite it
Every figure below recomputes as you move an input. Nothing is rounded until it is printed, and operating expenses never include debt service — that separation is what makes the cap rate a property of the building and the cash-on-cash a property of your deal. All outputs are estimates.

What it would have to cost
The asking price against three solved thresholds
Rent and every operating line held exactly as stated; only the purchase price moves. Each mark is the price that solves one condition. Nothing here is a price history: this asset has none, and inventing one would be the easiest dishonest thing on the page.
| Condition | Price | vs ask | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Current asking price | $268,000 | — | The number on the panel. Everything below is measured against it. |
| DSCR 1.00 | $217,500 | −18.8% | net operating income exactly covers the mortgage; cash flow is zero |
| Submarket median cap (4.21%) | $301,500 | +12.5% | the price at which this asset yields what its submarket already yields |
| Leverage turns (5.84%) | $217,500 | −18.8% | above this cap rate the loan adds to the return instead of subtracting from it |
Asking price carried on the submarket index
The current asking price projected backwards on the Maryvale median-price index. Arithmetic on two synthetic series — not an appraisal, not a price history and not a record of any transaction.

Comparables
Rent is compared per unit, which is the only fair basis across a house and a fourplex. The subject sits 8.2% below the median of its five closest comparables.
| Asset | Submarket | Proximity | Ask | Sq ft | $ / sq ft |

| MRV-04 Subject | Maryvale | — | $268,000 | 1,146 | $234 |

Sensitivity
What a five-percent move in price or fifty basis points on the rate does to the return. Computed at the baseline assumption set, not at whatever you have set the calculator to — it is a fixed reference.
Sensitivity — cash-on-cash by price and rate
Every other assumption held at the baseline set. A fixed reference, not tied to the calculator above. Estimates.
| Price \ Rate | 5.75% | 6.25% | 6.75% | 7.25% | 7.75% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $246,500−8% | -0.4% | -1.4% | -2.5% | -3.6% | -4.7% |
| $257,500−4% | -1.2% | -2.2% | -3.3% | -4.4% | -5.5% |
| $268,000ask | -1.9% | -2.9% | -4.0% | -5.1% | -6.2% |

Cash-on-cash-7.5% → -0.4%
What to check before you commit
HVAC replacement
The condenser dates to 2007 — 19 years old. Phoenix cooling loads shorten service life; a single-system replacement at current pricing is roughly $8,500. Reserve for it or price it into the offer.
Roof
Roof dates to 2009, 17 years old — inside the window most carriers will write without a surcharge.
Flood
FEMA Zone X. Outside the mapped special flood hazard area; a lender will not require separate flood coverage.
Water allocation
Served by City of Phoenix. Long-run Colorado River and Central Arizona Project allocation is a genuine risk to price on the metro’s growth edges over a 10-to-20 year hold. It is a discount-rate question, not a next-quarter question.
No HOA
No association. Nothing constrains rental use at the community level, and there is no fixed monthly charge in the expense line.
