INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 2620 W Ridge Dr, Emporia, KS, 66801 in Emporia the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.16%. The 5.16% gross yield on a $349,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $96,422 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.96) 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: $80,198.
