INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity Builder209 Seminole Dr, Whittier, NC, 28789 in Whittier earns a respectable 7.59% gross yield at $319,000, but after the $1,434/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $74/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.41) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
