INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 275 Scenic Dr, Montross, VA, 22520 in Montross the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.7%. The 3.7% gross yield on a $700,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $193,397 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.69) 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: $134,510.
