INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 369 18th Ave #306, San Francisco, CA, 94121 in San Francisco the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.31%. The 5.31% gross yield on a $939,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $259,428 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.98) 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: $194,895.
