INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 420 E Bellevue Rd, Merced, CA, 95348 in Merced the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.82%. The 3.82% gross yield on a $899,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $248,377 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.71) 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: $166,952.
