INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 2834 Surfside Shores Ln #3, Knoxville, TN, 37938 in Knoxville the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.88%. The 5.88% gross yield on a $679,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $187,844 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.09) 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: $209,857.
