INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 3 Cedarcrest Rd, Salem, MA, 01970 in Salem the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.45%. The 5.45% gross yield on a $1,165,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $321,868 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.01) 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: $310,604.
