Investment Verdict
Solid Income824 18th St NE #2, Washington, DC, 20002 in Washington earns a respectable 8.21% gross yield at $225,000, but after the $1,012/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $51/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. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $62,163 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $99,300.
