INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 537 Schiller Ave, Hamilton, NJ, 08610 in Hamilton the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.51%. The 5.51% gross yield on a $480,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $132,615 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.02) 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: $105,587.
