Acquired an 8-unit building for $650k. In place rents averaged $750 for one bedrooms in a market that supports $900. There was also one unit occupied by a live in care taker for free. We brought in our in-house management, fixed up the units, and leased up the 1 Bedrooms for $900/month. We will be refinancing in one month (9 months after acquisition) and using the new equity to invest in the down payment of the next property.
