INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity BuilderThe 7.89% yield at 1004 Buchanan Loop Rd, Sylva, NC, 28779 in Sylva is solid, but the $1,826/mo payment compresses net cash flow to $194/mo at $406,000. This is a tight-spread property, income covers debt, with little cushion. For investors who can optimise occupancy, the upside is real: 5% annual appreciation adds $112,170 by year five, and $3,739/yr in loan paydown builds equity. Ziffy Mortgage qualifies this via DSCR (1.46) without U.S. income documentation. Total projected return: $166,284.
