INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 2516 E Walnut Crk, West Covina, CA, 91791 in West Covina the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.32%. The 5.32% gross yield on a $1,460,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $403,371 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.99) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
