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

Thought we were getting a deal with a foreclosure.

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

Foreclosure was on MLS, banks take bids and make all the rules. We won the bid and are cash flowing and have absolutely FANTASTIC TENTANTS!!!

How did you finance this deal?

Hard money then cash our refinance.

How did you add value to the deal?

All new

What was the outcome?

Positive we were able to get most of our money back on refinance to put into another deal.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Plumbing stack in older house usually needs replacing, rewiring job and electrical contract was the toughest because we did not structure the contract properly and payments were made prior to all work being done.

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

Yes
