1st Property in 25 years closed today
Due to a bad partnership with my then and current father-in-law (what a huge mistake) the few buy and hold properties we had were sold and I was gun shy on the business. Now at 56 I have re-entered. Excited about my property:
Great property built as a duplex
HUD Purchase
2br, 1.5 bath, W/D hookup each side
Each Unit has 2 sets of stairs one going to each bedroom / full Jack-Jill Bath
1400 sq feet each,
New roof, new NG Boiler
Purchase $66,700 + all in after improvements $75,000
5 year adjustable @ 4.5% with very low closing as lender does not require Appraisal
It will be a reach but hoping to get $950 as side rent (they are really very nice units)
My absolute all-in cost will be $975 per month
Although I don’t post much the stories and content from BP provide great advice and terrific motivation thank you to all!
Keeping focused on the next one!
