INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income221 Balcones Heights Rd, Balcones Heights, TX, 78201 in Balcones Heights earns a respectable 9.36% gross yield at $195,000, but after the $877/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $134/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.73) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $53,875 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $83,293.
