INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Appreciation PlayYield and appreciation often trade off, and at 9848 S Fm 600, Abilene, TX, 79601 in Abilene the bet is firmly on appreciation. Rental yield 2.6%. The 2.6% gross yield on a $995,000 price is below income-first thresholds, but 5%/yr value growth projects $274,900 in equity by year five. Ziffy Mortgage's non-U.S. DSCR mortgage (0.48) 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: $64,868.
