INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income5005 Brownsville Rd, Pittsburgh, PA, 15236 in Pittsburgh earns a respectable 8.35% gross yield at $249,900, but after the $1,124/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $101/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens.
