INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid IncomeThe 9.1% yield at 536 E 3rd St, Hico, TX, 76457 in Hico is solid, but the $1,628/mo payment compresses net cash flow to $171/mo at $362,000. 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 $100,014 by year five, and $3,334/yr in loan paydown builds equity. Ziffy Mortgage qualifies this via DSCR (1.69) without U.S. income documentation. Total projected return: $149,783.
