INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 271 S Townsend Rd #A-1, Telluride, CO, 81435 in Telluride the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.51%. The 4.51% gross yield on a $1,750,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $483,493 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.84) 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: $403,666.
