INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Solid IncomeThe 8.37% yield at 871 High St, Elgin, IL, 60123 in Elgin is solid, but the $1,528/mo payment compresses net cash flow to $13/mo at $339,900. This is a tight-spread property, income covers debt, with little cushion. For investors who can optimise occupancy, the upside is real: 5% annual appreciation adds $93,908 by year five, and $3,131/yr in loan paydown builds equity.
