INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income530 1st Ave SE, Le Mars, IA, 51031 in Le Mars earns a respectable 8.28% gross yield at $335,000, but after the $1,506/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $137/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.54) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $92,554 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $136,261.
