INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity Builder712 Rockford Cir, Birmingham, AL, 35209 in Birmingham earns a respectable 7.84% gross yield at $315,000, but after the $1,416/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $77/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.45) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $87,029 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $124,630.
