Property-tax outlook
The Davidson County appraised value of $410,600 trails the $675,000 list price.

Reassessment timing and the certified rate can change, and a purchase does not by itself trigger reassessment. Verify with the Davidson County Assessor of Property and Trustee. Estimate only.

| Management (starting assumption) | 20% of gross |
| Other operating costs (starting assumption) | $350/mo |
| Gross to break even | $74,490 a year |
Break-even gross is the carrying cost plus other operating costs, divided by the share of gross left after management. The rate is the 30-year fixed rate for a primary residence (Mortgage News Daily, as of November 10, 2026); investment-property and DSCR loans usually price higher, and a higher rate raises the break-even. Management, other operating costs and occupancy are starting assumptions for you to change, not a forecast for this property; we hold no revenue record for it. Occupancy and sales taxes are collected from guests and passed through, so they are not an owner cost here. Per the listing, it is marketed as a non-owner-occupied short-term rental; permit status is not verified on this page, and Metro Nashville short-term-rental permits do not transfer on sale. Estimate only; not financial or investment advice.
