INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 16 N 1st St, Defuniak Springs, FL, 32433 in Defuniak Springs the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.37%. The 5.37% gross yield on a $594,700 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $164,305 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.
