INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 16 Riverwalk, Branford, CT, 06405 in Branford the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.79%. The 4.79% gross yield on a $814,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $225,142 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.89) 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: $164,212.
