INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 2049 E Hinchman Rd, Berrien Springs, MI, 49103 in Berrien Springs the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.05%. The 2.05% gross yield on a $689,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $190,607 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.38) 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: $45,777.
