INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 1151 Masters Place Way #171, Durham, NC, 27703 in Durham the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.26%. The 4.26% gross yield on a $658,985 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $182,065 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.79) 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: $141,789.
