INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 3939 W Birch St, Bitely, MI, 49309 in Bitely the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.65%. The 5.65% gross yield on a $299,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $82,857 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.05) 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: $77,683.
