The 4.42% gross yield on a $1,250,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $345,352 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.82) finances the acquisition on rental income alone. A larger down payment (30–35%) reduces monthly debt service and tightens the spread.
