INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 257 S Jackson Rd, Pecatonica, IL, 61063 in Pecatonica the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 0.73%. The 0.73% gross yield on a $394,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $109,104 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.14) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
