INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 4493 Montgomery St #6, Oakland, CA, 94611 in Oakland the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.66%. The 5.66% gross yield on a $999,800 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $276,226 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: $232,728.
