INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity Builder310 W 18th St, Chattanooga, TN, 37408 in Chattanooga earns a respectable 7.61% gross yield at $449,000, but after the $2,019/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $161/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.41) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $124,050 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $180,236.
