I was listening to the 90day challenge @Brandon Turner put out on a podcast. I wasn't really trying to buy another property in 2017 but my parents term deposit in Australia (currently earning 3% on their money) is coming to an end and they asked to partner up with me and get them a higher return on their retirement fund.

This baby hit the MLS and I had an offer in sight unseen on day 1. This property is a 3bedroom 1 bath SFR on a slab. This is the first home I will own that doesn't have a basement so I'm curious to what kind of feedback I'll get from tenants but less maintenance on my behalf.

Property is in Parma, OH, boarding an A city, IF I was a few houses down the street I would of been in Independence, OH border and this would of been worth a lot more. Turns out property is another Realtor that's liquidating, property needs a little bit of work. Scope of work is new furnace (as you can see in the pictures) paint to a more modern color, new floors in kitchen and bathroom and a deep clean. After all work and estimated income will be a 10-12 CAP.

I have to also argue the taxes on the property next year as I am buying for well under the assessed value by the county. Pretty sure those guys will recall my face from this years tax revision on two other properties I successfully bid down.

This will mark the 4th property I've bought in 2017 and my 16th door. Best of luck to you all on the 90day challenge.

House has brand new roof, newer windows. Appliances come included but I will probably get a new stove and dishwasher on black Friday/cyber Monday sales.
