Investment Verdict
Solid Income3206 68th St, Urbandale, IA, 50322 in Urbandale earns a respectable 8.15% gross yield at $200,000, but after the $899/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $59/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.51) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $55,256 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $79,931.
