INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 661 N Armistead St, Alexandria, VA, 22312 in Alexandria the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 4.5%. The 4.5% gross yield on a $695,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $192,016 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.83) 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: $163,288.
