INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income445 W Vaughan St, Bertram, TX, 78605 in Bertram earns a respectable 8.81% gross yield at $241,000, but after the $1,084/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $29/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.63) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
