[Dean OMalley]

Investment Info:

Single-family residence other investment.

Purchase price: $455,000
Cash invested: $650,000

My first BRRRR deal. Purchased an 800 sq ft 2bd/1ba single-family residence for $455k in 2019, which my builder partner Joseph Camile and I fully remodeled and added a bathroom (total cost: $80k). Remodel took about 2 months. Unit is now rented for $2900/mo.

On the back of the 8000 sq ft lot, we are building two new units: a 1500 sq ft 4bd/3ba upstairs unit and a 1000 sq ft 3bd/2ba downstairs unit. Construction was delayed, due to permitting delays from the city of San Diego, but construction is nearing completion. Total construction cost: $500k. Projected rents are $4500 and $3500.

Hoping to cash-out refi, with a valuation of $1.5M.
