INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 2638 W Superior St, Chicago, IL, 60612 in Chicago the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.07%. The 3.07% gross yield on a $1,600,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $442,051 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.57) 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: $160,790.
