INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 771 Harrison Ave #207, Boston, MA, 02118 in Boston the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.54%. The 5.54% gross yield on a $1,299,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $358,890 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (1.03) 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: $352,386.
