INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 4930 E Walnut St, Westerville, OH, 43081 in Westerville the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 1.72%. The 1.72% gross yield on a $1,895,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $523,554 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.32) 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: $21,465.
