Market Analysis: 83660 Parma

The 83660 ZIP covers a section of Parma that demands careful diligence. Prices near $516K look accessible, but the work to make a deal cash flow is real.

Rent of $1,494/mo on a $516K basis reads well until vacancy, delinquency, and capex enter the model. The honest cap rate in 83660 sits below the stated 0.0% once reality is priced in.

Statewide comparisons place 83660 among ID's softer markets. That context does not make the ZIP uninvestable, but it does raise the bar for due diligence.

Demographically, 83660 is a market where tenant selection matters more than unit finishes. Operators who understand that tend to do fine; those who do not tend to learn why the ZIP trades at a discount.

New investors are better served looking at Parma's stable or hybrid ZIPs before stepping into 83660. The learning curve here is expensive when the lesson is wrong.

Negative Leverage — IRR / Tax Play Cap Rate: 2.3%  |  30yr Rate: 6.8%
Leverage reduces cash returns at current rates.

The current 30-yr mortgage rate (6.8%) exceeds the estimated cap rate (2.3%). Financing reduces your cash-on-cash return below the cap rate. Markets like this may still make sense as IRR plays — factoring in appreciation, depreciation, and a future refinance when rates drop.

About Repit School Scores

Traditional school ratings rely heavily on standardized test scores, which often reflect family income more than school quality. Repit takes a different approach.

We evaluate schools based on factors that research shows actually impact educational outcomes:

  • Class Size — Smaller classes mean more individual attention
  • School Funding — Resources available for programs, staff, and facilities
  • Community Factors — Neighborhood characteristics that influence student success
  • School Environment — Size, type, and structure

Scores are updated annually using federal education data.
