INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 86-A-B Gotham Ave, Elmont, NY, 11003 in Elmont the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 5.25%. The 5.25% gross yield on a $825,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $227,932 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.97) 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: $192,092.
