Meridian Short Term Rental

Investment Info:

Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $450,000
Cash invested: $125,000

Bought this great outdated single-family home in a very nice established neighborhood in Meridian and gave it a makeover. We did floors and paint, gave the bathrooms and kitchen a face life, reorganized things a little, and furnished it beautifully. It's now a wonderful short-term rental.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Interested in higher cash flow than an average single-family home could provide.

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

MLS, that's my job :)

How did you finance this deal?

conventional investment loan, 20% down

What was the outcome?

Profitable short term rental up and running.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I represented myself for the purchase (who I highly recommend 🙃) and worked with one of my favorite conventional lenders, Jayne Bick with Homebridge.

It looks like the property turned out great, Molly! Fantastic work. 

I'll ping you if I'm ever looking to stay in the area...
