INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 104 E Lake Dr, Estelline, SD, 57234 in Estelline the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.5%. The 3.5% gross yield on a $745,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $205,830 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.66) 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: $123,223.
