INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 166-22 21st Ave, Flushing, NY, 11357 in Flushing the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.6%. The 3.6% gross yield on a $1,250,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $345,352 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.67) 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: $180,643.
