INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 1224-1226 W 7th St, Erie, PA, 16502 in Erie the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.54%. The 5.54% gross yield on a $329,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $91,145 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.03) 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: $84,535.
