What the numbers mean for investors

A price-led market

At a 4.2% gross rent yield, rents are low relative to prices ($1,042 rent vs. $297,300 value). Rentals here usually need more cash down to qualify for a DSCR loan, so value-add flips and lower-leverage holds tend to pencil better than high-leverage rentals.

Newer homes, thinner spreads

The median home was built in 2004. Newer stock means lighter rehabs but less value to add, so your margin comes from buying right — the purchase price matters more than the scope.

Owner-occupant buyers

Only 4% of homes are rented. Flips sell into a large owner-occupant buyer pool, but rental comps are thinner — get a rent survey before you underwrite a hold.

Tight supply

Only about 2% of housing units are vacant. Low vacancy supports rents and resale speed — and means good deals move fast, so a quick close matters.

A typical Bar Nunn flip, by the numbers

To show how a hard money loan works in this market, here is an illustration built on Bar Nunn’s median values — not a quote. Assume you buy a distressed home at 75% of the median value, budget 10% of value for a renovation sized to the local housing age, and resell at the median.

Purchase price$222,975
Rehab budget$29,730
After-repair value$297,300
Loan (90% of purchase + 100% of rehab, max 75% of ARV)$222,975
Your cash in, before fees$29,730
Gross spread before financing and selling costs$44,595

A gross spread of 15% of ARV leaves room for interest, points, holding and selling costs (often 10–15% of ARV combined), but the margin still depends on buying right. Run your own numbers in the fix & flip calculator.

Rentals and DSCR in Bar Nunn

At the median value, a 75% loan ($222,975) at 7.5% over 30 years costs about $1,559 a month in principal and interest. Median rent of $1,042 covers that 0.67 times before property taxes, insurance and any HOA — which lower the ratio further. Rent doesn’t cover the payment at this leverage, so rentals need a larger down payment or a below-median purchase price to qualify. Check a specific property with the DSCR calculator.
