INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 321 S Moore St, Algona, IA, 50511 in Algona the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.71%. The 5.71% gross yield on a $145,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $40,061 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.06) 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: $38,974.
