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

I've always wanted to flip a house. One of the motivations for this flip was to generate profit to invest into more rental properties, specifically multifamily.

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

MLS, It was a foreclosure. I worked with a realtor and offered $7,500 over asking. I was one of 7 offers and won the bid.

How did you finance this deal?

Cash Investor

How did you add value to the deal?

A lot was cosmetic. Complete redo on kitchen and bath. Some new windows. Paint and Kilz everything (house was a smoker house)

What was the outcome?

It was great. It was fast and profitable and I havn't found a deal near that good since.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

No major mistakes were made but I would say make sure double and triple check your rehab numbers.
