INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity Builder730 Wellman Ave UNIT 730, North Chelmsford, MA, 01863 in North Chelmsford earns a respectable 7.96% gross yield at $452,500, but after the $2,035/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $148/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.47) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $125,017 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $181,325.
