Investment Verdict
Solid Income134 Schuylkill Ave, Tamaqua, PA, 18252 in Tamaqua earns a respectable 9.59% gross yield at $119,900, but after the $539/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $172/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.78) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
