INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 1104 Margaret Ln, Kinston, NC, 28501 in Kinston the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.11%. The 5.11% gross yield on a $309,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $85,620 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.95) 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: $80,811.
