INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 125 W Sycamore Ave, El Segundo, CA, 90245 in El Segundo the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.68%. The 4.68% gross yield on a $1,925,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $531,842 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.87) 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: $446,612.
