Investing in Weston County
Weston County covers 2 rental markets we actively finance in Wyoming — Newcastle, Upton. Across those markets the median investment basis averages $205,000, a long-term lease averages $1,663/month, and the average all-in PITIA on a DSCR loan at the minimum down payment is $1,345. That produces a county-wide average DSCR ratio near 1.24x.
Basis varies more inside Weston County than the average suggests. Upton is the lowest entry point at roughly $175,000, while Upton currently models the strongest coverage ratio in the county at 1.28x. When two towns in the same county ratio differently, it is almost always the rent-to-price relationship rather than the rate — the same loan pricing applies county-wide, so the deal is won on which submarket you buy in.
