Home values and rent in Waterville
We don't have a Waterville-specific median home value. Countywide, Lucas County's figure is $163,900 (ACS 2020-2024 5yr) — treat this as a county-level baseline, not a Waterville number. On rent, we're again working from the county: Lucas County's median gross rent is $934/mo (ACS 2020-2024 5yr), not a Waterville-specific figure.

The county tax-drag math applies here
Lucas County's 1.55% effective tax rate applies to property in Waterville — above 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 Lucas County page — here's the tax line specifically for a property at Waterville's own numbers:
- Property value used
- $163,900 (countywide)
- Lucas County effective tax rate
- 1.55%
- Estimated monthly property tax
- $212
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.
