INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 3931-3933 18th St, San Francisco, CA, 94114 in San Francisco the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.37%. The 4.37% gross yield on a $1,588,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $438,735 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.81) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
