Investment Info:

Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $306,000

My home that I am house hacking.

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

I wanted a home of my own but did not want to spend 300,000 for a one bedroom condo in DC so I bought a 3 bedroom 3.5 bathroom in Fredericksburg and rented out the room.

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

It was a new construction

How did you finance this deal?

VA home loan

What was the outcome?

I now have an extra $800 a month to put away for the next home.
