INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 1270 E Birch Street, Othello, WA, 99344 in Othello the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.15%. The 2.15% gross yield on a $335,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $92,554 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.40) 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: $35,821.
