INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity BuilderThe 7.83% yield at 5056 Melinda Ct S, Salem, OR, 97306 in Salem is solid, but the $1,708/mo payment compresses net cash flow to $187/mo at $379,900. This is a tight-spread property, income covers debt, with little cushion. For investors who can optimise occupancy, the upside is real: 5% annual appreciation adds $104,959 by year five, and $3,499/yr in loan paydown builds equity.
