What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
I wanted to purchase my first property and get into real estate investing. I figured the best opportunity would be purchasing an owner occupied investment. I would be able to benefit from the low interest on owner occupied loans.
How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
I was lucky enough to already be living in the property and purchased the unit from my landlord. We negotiated the contract off market and kept the home off MLS. Being a realtor I ran the comps and she used an outside realtor to do the same.
How did you finance this deal?
It was financed as an FHA loan
