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

I liked the idea of having a condo in a place I love to visit, and a place that has seasonal outdoor recreation.

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

Found it on a realtors Instagram feed. It was an offer, counter offer, counter deal. Started at 200k.

How did you finance this deal?

I saved up for 15% down.

How did you add value to the deal?

There were other unites that were cash-flowing 20k/year ( about 1666 a month on average), that sold for 200k.
The mortgage, insurance, HOA, remodel costs and other costs end up being 1300/month. Average cashflow is 350 a month, with some months being huge in summer.

What was the outcome?

I remodeled the condo, and put it on Airbnb. I am a superhost and average 350/month in Cashflow for the first 7 months of bookings.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

I am self employed, so originally it was tough to go through a bank. I ended up calling about 10-15 different lenders, brokers, banks etc., before someone one fund the deal.

Time to remodel- this took about 4 weeks longer than I expected, but I was doing most of the work.

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

Yes, a great Realtor, and Broker.
