INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 4701-4701 Date Ave #114, La Mesa, CA, 91942 in La Mesa the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.88%. The 5.88% gross yield on a $628,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $173,505 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.09) 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: $186,191.
