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

During the recession I no longer had a paying job, and decided to get into real estate investing. It took me 2 years to finally figure out that we were in position to buy with a mortgage because my husband had w-2 income, and prices were rock-bottom. By that time I had built up a team, had an inspector, and this property came out good.

How did you finance this deal?

Conventional loan, 25% down.
