INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 1510 N 15th Ave, Melrose Park, IL, 60160 in Melrose Park the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.52%. The 5.52% gross yield on a $375,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $103,606 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.02) 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: $87,008.
