As of October 2026, we analyzed 1,548 active for-sale homes in Spring, Texas. The typical listing is priced at $365,000 and is projected to generate about $42,220 a year as a short-term rental.

After setting aside an estimated 20% for operating costs, an estimated 47.3% of those homes could still cover an investor mortgage payment on short-term-rental income — roughly in line with the 53.1% median across the 200 major metros we track, ranking Spring #117 of 200 for cash-flow potential.

On market momentum: homes in Spring sit a median of 52 days on the market, and 32% of active listings came on in just the last 30 days — a steadily paced market, which shapes how much room there is to negotiate.

For a DSCR loan — which qualifies on the property's rental income rather than your personal income — Spring runs tighter once operating costs are accounted for: many listings need a below-median price, a stronger short-term-rental setup, or more money down before the income covers the payment. It's a market where running the numbers property-by-property matters.

What actually works in Spring

Spring works for investors, but the window is specific: 257 of the 1,109 Spring homes, condos and townhomes we can price confidently clear a DSCR of 1.25. Nine in ten of them are priced under $345,000.

Share of those listings clearing an DSCR of 1.25, by price and bedroom count. The smaller figure is the median DSCR for that group.
Price	2 bed	3 bed	4 bed	5 bed
$150k–$250k	42%1.20	62%1.31	78%1.41	—
$250k–$350k	—	8%1.05	32%1.14	40%1.07
$350k–$500k	—	0%0.81	9%0.96	18%1.04
$500k+	—	0%0.54	0%0.57	0%0.59

Darker means a larger share of that group cash-flows. “—” means fewer than 8 active listings — too few to draw a conclusion from.
