INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 201-205 S 1st Ave, Edinburg, TX, 78539 in Edinburg the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.46%. The 2.46% gross yield on a $599,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $165,493 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.46) 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: $24,796.
