INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid Income86 Highland St, Athol, MA, 01331 in Athol earns a respectable 8.32% gross yield at $249,000, but after the $1,120/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $157/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.54) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer.
