INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid IncomeThe 8.23% yield at 1740 California Ave E, Saint Paul, MN, 55106 in Saint Paul is solid, but the $1,079/mo payment compresses net cash flow to $147/mo at $239,900. This is a tight-spread property, income covers debt, with little cushion. For investors who can optimise occupancy, the upside is real: 5% annual appreciation adds $66,280 by year five, and $2,210/yr in loan paydown builds equity.
