What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
Interest rates were super low and I was looking to invest with savings from first job.
How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
I had a friend who lived in the area give me a heads up and found out the property was on and off the market a few times previously. The seller had just moved across county and was looking to get out so I offered $15k under listing and took it as is.
How did you finance this deal?
5% down with first time homebuyers loan.
Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
