INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid IncomeThe 8.28% yield at 511 2nd Ave NW, Mount Vernon, IA, 52314 in Mount Vernon is solid, but the $965/mo payment compresses net cash flow to $87/mo at $214,500. 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 $59,262 by year five, and $1,976/yr in loan paydown builds equity.
