Description

Need room to breathe? Tired of close neighbors and city traffic? Escape to a full acre of peaceful country living in Rio Hondo! Built in 2022, this 3-bed, 2-bath home is built to last. Per seller, it features solid masonry construction with white split-face concrete block (not wood frame), a reinforced foundation set 4 ft deep with rebar every 3 ft designed to support a future second story, and a lot and driveway built up with fill dirt for better drainage. Spray-foam insulation in the roof and walls helps keep electric bills remarkably low. Open layout, a kitchen with generous cabinetry, and a primary suite with a walk-in shower and walk-in closet. Tile floors, ceiling fans, central A/C and heat, and a laundry room add everyday comfort. Outside, the private, A-R zoned acre has a patio slab and chain-link and privacy fencing, with room for horses, livestock, RVs, a workshop, or a garden. City water, septic, Magic Valley Electric. No HOA! Los Fresnos CISD. Survey and floor plan on file.

How we calculate the cap rate, and how accurate it is

Cap rate = NOI ÷ price. NOI is the rent you would collect in a year, after vacancy, minus the costs of running the property. The loan is left out, so the cap rate measures the property as if you paid cash.

Is it accurate?

It is an estimate, not a quote or a guaranteed return. It is only as good as its inputs:

  • Missing: the monthly rent. Enter it to get a cap rate.
  • MLS figures are what the listing reports. We have not verified them.
  • Listings in this MLS do not include property tax, so unless you enter your own figure we use 2.2% of the price a year. Look up the property’s value and taxing units at the Cameron Appraisal District (opens in a new tab); a rental does not get the homestead exemption.
  • If a listing advertises its own cap rate, it may leave out vacancy, management or other costs, which makes it look higher.
  • To confirm it, ask for the current lease or rent roll, last year’s tax bill (Cameron County Tax Assessor-Collector) and your own insurance quote from a Texas-licensed agent; coastal wind and flood coverage can cost much more. For a specific property, Ricardo can ask the listing agent for the lease, the tax bill and what the seller pays for insurance.

What it leaves out

  • The mortgage. Your loan shows up in cash flow and cash-on-cash, not in the cap rate.
  • Big repairs and replacements (roof, A/C, appliances) and savings set aside for them.
  • Utilities, lawn care or pest control, if the owner pays them.
  • Closing costs, leasing fees, income taxes in the U.S. or Mexico, and depreciation.
