INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 203 W Hammond St, Otsego, MI, 49078 in Otsego the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.57%. The 5.57% gross yield on a $284,500 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $78,602 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.03) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
