Townhouse fix & flip investment in Encino.

Purchase price: $160,000
Cash invested: $45,000
Sale price: $295,000

This investment property was a great deal due to the area it was located in. I update the interior with a timeless look and the location of the property made it even more desirable to potential buyers.

The location and number made sense to do this flip.

I found this property through a family friend.

Private financing

How did you add value to the deal?

I was able to update the interior of the townhome to add value to the property.

What was the outcome?

I sold this property for a good profit.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

A lesson learned was to use a realtor that is familiar with the area.
