Real ZIP-wide statistics from RentCast, as of 2026-09 (fetched 2026-09-03) — this is the whole ZIP's market, not specific to this property. Re-analyzing spends one of the account's 50 free monthly lookups. Our own log shows at least 6 of the 50 free monthly RentCast requests used — that only counts calls made through this app, so it can undercount. RentCast's own account dashboard has the real total.

Assumes 3.0% annual rent growth, 2.5% expense growth, 3.0% appreciation, and a 6.0% selling cost at exit — all placeholder assumptions, not market-derived.
All figures are estimates for evaluation purposes only, not investment, tax, legal, or insurance advice. Property tax is estimated from a real matched tax bill or millage rate when available, a placeholder % of price otherwise; insurance is scaled by flood and wind risk where those are known and a flat percentage otherwise — never a real quote. Verify all of them, along with association restrictions and permit status, before committing capital. Rent estimates come from real comps or Zillow’s ZIP index, not appraisals.
