INVESTMENT ANALYSIS
Investment Verdict
Steady Equity Builder121 S Aster Ave, Chattanooga, TN, 37419 in Chattanooga earns a respectable 7.71% gross yield at $250,000, but after the $1,124/mo mortgage the net cash flow is $110/mo, a tight but positive spread. Expense discipline (vacancy, management, maintenance) will determine whether the margin widens. Ziffy Mortgage's DSCR mortgage (1.43) still qualifies on property income; a larger down payment can improve the cash-flow buffer. Long-term, 5% appreciation projects $69,070 over five years, making equity the dominant return driver. Total projected return: $101,737.
