INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 1203 W Lincoln Ave, Rochelle, IL, 61068 in Rochelle the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.32%. The 5.32% gross yield on a $229,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $63,517 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.94) 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: $46,633.
