Cosmetic Deal in Decatur,GA

Investment Info:

Single-family residence wholesale investment in Duncan.

Purchase price: $270,000

Off of the market in Decatur, GA sits this large 4-sided brick split level home. This deal is intended to be a cosmetic fix & flip with 4beds, 2.5baths, 1,916 of square footage with a 2 car garage.

The story behind this transaction is miraculous. My buyer, as a mother of 2 children, newly divorced and searching for a home to live in saw one of my advertisements around the area as she was walking to the park. She then gave me a call, told me she was looking to buy a home to live in, but she was also curious to know what it is that I do. I let her know I help seasoned & new investors skyrocket their REI career. From that very phone call, we stayed in communication and I provided as much information on REI that I could based on my experience, and a few months later she purchased this house. However, this home was not for her to live in, but for her to fix & flip as an investment. I am still so grateful to have received this opportunity of changing her life, and leading her into financial freedom.

How did you finance this deal?

Cash

Throughout this process I have learned that you add value to yourself, when you add value to others. Be an open heart and an open book.
