INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 3822 S Court Street, Seattle, WA, 98144 in Seattle the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.53%. The 4.53% gross yield on a $1,785,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $493,163 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.84) 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: $418,603.
