INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 5403 Pointe Dr, East China, MI, 48054 in East China the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.36%. The 5.36% gross yield on a $449,900 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $124,299 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.99) 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: $109,863.
