INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 215 I St NE APT 311, Washington, DC, 20002 in Washington the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.85%. The 5.85% gross yield on a $774,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $214,091 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.08) 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: $244,065.
