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

Flipping is our primary focus and this house was in good shape, but dated, and we obtained at a great price.

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

We used a buyers agent and it was located thru the local MLS.

How did you finance this deal?

Hard money loan

How did you add value to the deal?

New roof. New kitchen with granite. New primary bathroom with tile shower. New vinyl windows. New hardwood floors. Painted the exterior. New porch. New concrete parking pad. We also finished out the 3rd floor attic; it is not conforming space but it will make an excellent playroom or home office or mancave.

What was the outcome?

Still listed.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Black semigloss should only be used when you are installing all new trim

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