INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income36 Crystal Lake Dr, Covington, KY, 41017 in Covington earns a respectable 8.02% gross yield at $255,000, but after the $1,147/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $152/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.49) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $70,452 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $106,379.
