INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 9411 N Maple Hill Rd, Howard City, MI, 49329 in Howard City the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 3.75%. The 3.75% gross yield on a $850,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $234,839 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.69) 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: $133,810.
