Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

Purchase price: $920,000
Cash invested: $120,000
Sale price: $1,100,000

Single Story home with views. This one was by far the finest flip we have done it was a modern look that was at the very top of Lake. The views were breathtaking we put a lot of love into this one. Fully remodeled it inside and out and turned it into a gem was hard to sell it and see it go. I almost kept it but in the end, the right buyer made an offer and it sold
