INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 136 Mesa View Lane #B, Salida, CO, 81201 in Salida the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.35%. The 5.35% gross yield on a $749,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $207,184 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.99) 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: $217,100.
