INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 29854 Ardmore Ave, Ardmore, AL, 35739 in Ardmore the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.75%. The 2.75% gross yield on a $850,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $234,839 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.51) 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: $137,062.
