INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 5117 Schuler St #A, Houston, TX, 77007 in Houston the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.42%. The 5.42% gross yield on a $849,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $234,563 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.00) 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: $183,629.
