Looking for our first SFR rental purchase BRRRR in Tennessee
HI All,
Thank you all for your thoughts on TN.
I am a new investor looking to BRRRR my first deal. Tennessee looks like a good place to own rental property. But some comments here have me asking if there are reasonable deals left? Also, I am hearing that contractors are in high demand and that rehab projects are taking longer and are more expensive, it this correct?
I would really like to get started before interest rates climb much further.
So, in a nutshell, is there anyone in TN that would like to work with me to find, rehab and manage a SFR rental property?
Thanks in advance for your input!

Hi @Mike Katz,
$50-$75k pre-rehab price is going to be distressed property in the Chattanooga Market. Definitely get hooked-up with some wholesalers who can comb the market. I can give you a couple of wholesalers to reach-out to if you like.
What do you want to spend on rehab? You probably want to expect another 50K+ on rehab costs to get a property rentable.
Start building your team on the ground in Chattanooga or Knoxville so you can be properly posied when a deal becomes available. TN Banker, two or three agents, PM, GC.
Let me know what you need and I'll hook you up with the best in Chattanooga.
