This 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom single-family home at 22419 Sawmill Ranch Dr in Spring was built in 2015 and has 3,308 sq ft. The numbers start from the asking price of $459,900, and 15 nearby rentals suggest $2,960 a month in rent. At that price and rent, the rent covers the monthly payment 0.72 times (DSCR 0.72). That is under 1.0, so the rent does not cover the monthly payment. After 8% of the year empty and 10% of rent set aside for repairs, you would put in $1,642 a month.
Three Greater Houston facts drive these numbers. The home is in a municipal utility district (MUD): ENCANTO REAL UD adds 0.74% to the tax rate, and the county labels it a developing district whose rate can change. The seller's tax bill of $9,368 (2025) is lower than an investor's estimated $12,289 a year, because the seller's homestead exemption does not transfer to a rental and the taxable value resets toward the purchase price after a sale. Rents in Greater Houston have been flat, so the numbers assume 8% vacancy and no rent growth.
To reach DSCR 1.2, the price would need to come down to about $193,900, or the rent would need to be near $4,911 a month. Before making an offer, ask a local leasing agent what homes like this one have actually leased for.
