Real Austin Numbers
Rent, taxes, insurance, and vacancy modeled from actual Austin data — not national averages that quietly overstate returns.

Hold-Period Modeling
Cash-on-cash today plus appreciation, principal paydown, and total return over your actual hold period.
A calculator is only as good as the rent input.
Every model turns on one number: achievable market rent. Online estimates routinely miss Austin block by block by $200 to $500 a month, which is the entire difference between positive and negative cash flow. We price from executed leases near the property, then let the math do the rest.
"We ran our own model, then had Driven check the rent — we were $250 a month too optimistic."

Questions, answered.
What is a good ROI on an Austin rental?+
Most Austin buyers underwrite to roughly 4-7% cash-on-cash in year one, with total return meaningfully higher once principal paydown, depreciation, and appreciation are counted.
Do Austin rentals cash flow?+
Some do. Central Austin often runs thin on day-one cash flow and stronger on appreciation, while suburbs like Pflugerville, Hutto, Manor, and Kyle price closer to break-even or positive.
What expenses do investors forget?+
Property taxes at the non-homestead rate, insurance increases, a real maintenance reserve, turnover and make-ready costs, and vacancy between leases.
Will you analyze a property I don't own yet?+
Yes. We give buyers a rent projection and expense estimate before closing at no cost and with no obligation.
