Haven AI

The property at 226 Washington Street represents a severe financial risk from a conservative investment standpoint. A monthly cash flow deficit of -$5,737.95 indicates a total disconnect between the $1.2M acquisition price and the prevailing market rents in Bath, ME. With a nominal rental yield of approximately 0.33%, the asset fails to meet basic debt service coverage requirements, necessitating massive monthly capital infusions to sustain ownership. While the 4% annual appreciation is consistent with regional trends, it is insufficient to offset the immediate and compounding liquidity drain. This investment is highly speculative and lacks the fundamental income-producing characteristics required for a stable multi-family portfolio.

Strengths
  • Favorable 1:1 bed-to-bath ratio across 6 units
  • Stable 4% projected annual appreciation for the Maine mid-coast region
  • Located in a historic district with high demand for multi-family housing
Considerations
  • Profoundly negative cash flow exceeding $68,000 in annual losses
  • Yield of 0.33% is significantly below the risk-free rate of return
  • High acquisition cost of $533 per square foot for the local market
  • Inability to service a standard mortgage without massive out-of-pocket subsidies
  • Valuation appears disconnected from the income-producing potential of the asset
