INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income72 Hilltop Dr, Science Hill, KY, 42553 in Science Hill earns a respectable 8.22% gross yield at $249,900, but after the $1,124/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $191/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.52) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
