INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 5505-9 N 5th St, Philadelphia, PA, 19120 in Philadelphia the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.76%. The 3.76% gross yield on a $456,888 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $126,230 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.70) 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: $73,578.
