INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 118 N 2nd St, Cowden, IL, 62422 in Cowden the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 0%. The 0% gross yield on a $173,500 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $47,935 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.00) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
