Investment Verdict
Solid Income680 81st St APT 1A, Brooklyn, NY, 11228 in Brooklyn earns a respectable 8.24% gross yield at $399,000, but after the $1,794/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $76/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.53) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $110,236 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $157,037.
