INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 12362 W 16th Drive, Lakewood, CO, 80215 in Lakewood the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.72%. The 3.72% gross yield on a $1,675,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $462,772 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.69) 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: $338,562.
