Investor Insight Report

Appreciation: Market value has risen +1452.8% from $24,000 (2021) to $372,668 (2025), a CAGR of 98.5% over 4 years. This is strong appreciation — well above typical inflation. Most of this growth came in a single year (2021→2023), not a steady climb — worth checking what drove that reappraisal rather than assuming a smooth trend.

Tax Burden: The combined rate across 6 taxing entities is 1.7462% in 2025 (-0.0044% vs 2024 — rates decreased ). At the current taxable value, estimated annual taxes are $2,705. Del Valle ISD is the largest single contributor, at 48.2% of the total 2025 levy.

Asset Class: O. This is valued using the cost approach, tied more to replacement cost and physical condition than to income performance.

Value Composition: Land carries 8% of market value ($30,712 land vs $341,956 improvements), about $6/SF of land. Most value sits in the improvements, so building condition, age (~5 yrs), and rent roll drive the underwriting.

Forward Outlook: Holding the +98.5% Base-scenario CAGR (Based on 2021–2025 certified trend, projected forward from 2025), the model projects market value near $11,487,107 by 2030, with an estimated annual tax burden around $8,756. Estimated Forward figures are model projections, not certified — see the 6-Year Projection section for the low/base/high bands.

No delinquent taxes on record.

Estimate only. The appraisal district sets value as of Jan 1 (not at sale price). A sale is strong evidence of market value and is typically reflected in the next Jan 1 valuation. Taxing units set rates annually. Modeled from government data — not a legal or tax opinion.
