INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 10198 S Old Route 66, Litchfield, IL, 62056 in Litchfield the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.12%. The 4.12% gross yield on a $389,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $107,474 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.76) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread. Total projected cumulative return: $61,005.
