INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 308 17th Ave S, Cold Spring, MN, 56320 in Cold Spring the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.42%. The 4.42% gross yield on a $374,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $103,578 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.82) 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: $80,387.
