— 628 Kentucky St 94590 · 4 units · $895,000 · underwrite this one — no verdict on file Rejected — The listing states the per dwelling mix: the front building holds an extra large 2 bedroom house and a 1 bedroom unit, and the back building holds two 2 bedroom units. The run read the mix as unstated and split the 8 bedrooms evenly as 2+2+2+2, pricing four 2 bedroom dwellings. · Re derived at the stated mix, with the 1 bedroom unit priced at the 94590 1 bedroom band, the cautious case loses to the index at a breakeven of 9.2 years, so this row does not beat renting and index funds.

Margins are signed and stated at our published defaults (3.5% down, cautious rents, a ten-year hold) against investing the same money in the index. They are not a forecast, and a record page is not a recommendation: only the picks are that. A rejected row keeps its number and its reason; the reason is why the number does not count.

Earlier North Bay runs in the store: September 21, 2026 · September 14, 2026 · September 7, 2026 · August 24, 2026. Every property from those weeks keeps its record page.
