INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income4416 Ballard Rd, Lansing, MI, 48911 in Lansing earns a respectable 9.08% gross yield at $100,000, but after the $450/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $98/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens.
