Investment Verdict
Solid Income618 N 21st St, Fort Smith, AR, 72901 in Fort Smith earns a respectable 8.76% gross yield at $144,900, but after the $652/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $186/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.67) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
