INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income809 S Starr Ave, Burlington, IA, 52601 in Burlington earns a respectable 9.07% gross yield at $114,900, but after the $517/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $122/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.68) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
