Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 1010 Highway 98 E UNIT 902, Destin, FL, 32541 in Destin the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.32%. The 4.32% gross yield on a $849,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $234,812 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.80) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
