INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 3348 W Erie Ave, Lorain, OH, 44053 in Lorain the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.42%. The 3.42% gross yield on a $1,300,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $359,166 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.63) 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: $183,394.
