INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 205 N 3rd St, Lovington, NM, 88260 in Lovington the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.11%. The 4.11% gross yield on a $135,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $37,298 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.76) 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: $29,774.
