Single-Family Rental investing in Salisbury

Single-family rentals are the cleanest DSCR file you can write in Salisbury. One unit, one lease, one Form 1007 market rent schedule, and the deepest set of sale and rent comps in the Wicomico County appraisal market. Detached stock also carries the longest average tenancies, which is what actually protects the ratio you close at.

At the Salisbury median of $250,000, a single-family rental prices near $250,000. Minimum down is 20% ($50,000), leaving a loan of $200,000. Estimated all-in PITIA runs about $1,719 per month.

The Salisbury ratio math on this product

A long-term lease should produce roughly $1,825/month in gross rent. Against a PITIA of $1,719, that is an estimated DSCR ratio of 1.06x. That clears the 1.0 minimum most DSCR shelves require for base pricing, but the cushion is thin. Stress-test a tax reassessment and an insurance renewal before you write the offer.

Underwriting notes specific to detached rentals: the appraiser's Form 1007 and your signed lease are compared and the lower number is used, so a below-market inherited tenant will cap your ratio no matter what the market says. Budget 5% of gross rent for vacancy and 8%–10% for management even if you self-manage — a lender will not require it, but the file should still pencil with it.

Returns and structure

Return metrics at the Salisbury median for this product: an estimated cap rate of 5.43%, and monthly cash flow of $106 positive at 20% down. A file that cash-flows at the minimum down payment is the exception in Maryland right now, and it gives you room to absorb an insurance renewal without going to the reserve account.
