INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 2497 Sanctuary Dr, Williamsburg, VA, 23185 in Williamsburg the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.16%. The 2.16% gross yield on a $1,500,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $414,422 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.40) 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: $114,789.
