INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid IncomeThe 8.11% yield at 6327 Merriman Rd, Garden City, MI, 48135 in Garden City is solid, but the $1,228/mo payment compresses net cash flow to $45/mo at $273,000. 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 $75,425 by year five, and $2,514/yr in loan paydown builds equity.
