INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 7720 2nd Ave N #N, Birmingham, AL, 35206 in Birmingham the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.88%. The 2.88% gross yield on a $525,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $145,048 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.53) 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: $88,240.
