INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity Builder10 Highland St, Spencer, MA, 01562 in Spencer earns a respectable 7.89% gross yield at $524,900, but after the $2,360/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $144/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens.
