INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 501 W 156th St APT 34, New York, NY, 10032 in New York the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.16%. The 4.16% gross yield on a $449,995 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $124,325 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.77) 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: $17,759.
