INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 8734 E Amelia Ave, Scottsdale, AZ, 85251 in Scottsdale the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.2%. The 3.2% gross yield on a $1,750,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $483,493 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.59) 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: $295,834.
