INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 2440 Calendula Ln, Carlsbad, CA, 92008 in Carlsbad the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.86%. The 4.86% gross yield on a $1,064,496 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $294,101 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.93) 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: $244,001.
