Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 26 S Ocean Front Ln, Cayucos, CA, 93430 in Cayucos the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.56%. The 2.56% gross yield on a $1,800,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $497,307 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.47) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
