Home values and rent in Shelby
We don't have a Shelby-specific median home value. Countywide, Richland County's figure is $164,800 (ACS 2020-2024 5yr) — treat this as a county-level baseline, not a Shelby number. On rent, we're again working from the county: Richland County's median gross rent is $824/mo (ACS 2020-2024 5yr), not a Shelby-specific figure.
03
The county tax-drag math applies here
Richland County's 1.13% effective tax rate applies to property in Shelby — below the 1.36% statewide average. The full worked PITIA and DSCR example, built on a property at the county's median value, is on the Richland County page — here's the tax line specifically for a property at Shelby's own numbers:
- Property value used
- $164,800 (countywide)
- Richland County effective tax rate
- 1.13%
- Estimated monthly property tax
- $155
That estimate uses an observed Ohio DSCR average of 7.20% (Q2 2026)¹ elsewhere in the full county example — this is a market observation, not an offer; your rate depends on your DSCR, credit, LTV and loan purpose, and is set by the lender, not by us.
