Sources & methodology

Data as of HUD FY2026 (retrieved July 13, 2026).

HUD figures come from HUD's published tables for the area. The sample underwrite runs TrueCap's sample deal through the analyzer's own math.

Three things to verify locally

  • Property tax bill. Pull the parcel's current bill from the county assessor or treasurer, and check whether a sale changes the assessment. The sample above uses 1.49% of price; enter the Beaumont bill instead.
  • Rental licensing and permits. Check whether Beaumont requires a rental license, registration, inspection, or certificate of occupancy for the address, and budget any fees before you close.
  • Insurance quotes. Get a written landlord-policy quote for the specific property, with wind, hail, or flood coverage where the property needs it, and enter that premium instead of a default.
