INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income1648 Hardscrabble Rd, Saranac, NY, 12981 in Saranac earns a respectable 9.05% gross yield at $179,000, but after the $805/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $155/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.68) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $49,454 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $78,207.
