INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 441 E California Blvd, Pasadena, CA, 91106 in Pasadena the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.95%. The 4.95% gross yield on a $1,380,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $381,269 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.92) 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: $339,888.
