INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 5 1/2 Pine St, Potsdam, NY, 13676 in Potsdam the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.51%. The 4.51% gross yield on a $164,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $45,559 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.84) 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: $31,877.
