Investment Verdict
Steady Equity Builder126B Hunolt St, Santa Cruz, CA, 95060 in Santa Cruz earns a respectable 7.5% gross yield at $950,000, but after the $4,272/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $63/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.39) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
