What properties did you buy in 2020?
With just a few weeks left in the year, it's likely that I'll end 2020 having made no purchases. I only began looking in earnest in late October, so I don't feel too bad about it, but I'd love to hear about what YOU purchased this year.
What was your goal for the year?
How many purchases did you make? What was the property type and the investment strategy (wholesale, flip, buy and hold, etc)? Where are they located?
Any details you can share about the deals? Purchase price, cash invested, sale price or ARV, rent, financing
Any finally, did any professionals help you with this deal that you would recommend to others? Realtor, lender, title company, contractor, PM, etc
I created this topic in the Fayetteville forum, but I'd love to hear about any deals in Northwest Arkansas: Rogers, Bentonville, Springdale, Centerton, etc

My goal for the year was to acquire my wife and I's first property - which we accomplished back in March!
Buy and hold bought for 160k in Fayetteville with 20% down via conventional financing. Ended up negotiating a few thousand in seller concessions and did some renovations for ~5k. Rents for >$1400 and meets our criteria for a B neighborhood, 3/2 with garage, and not exclusively catered to college students, but could be if needed.
Found it on the MLS, but had to be quick to snap it up. COVID probably worked in our favor to expedite the seller's decision to accept our offer without hearing any others. We plan on continuing with buy and holds until we get 2-3 under our belt after which we will likely switch to more of a BRRRR strategy seeing as most of NWA is teetering on that line of where it doesn't make sense anymore to acquire properties that only need a little love that still cash flow >10%
