Complete remodel and performed all work with my business partner without hiring contractors.

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

It was a rental that was listed on the MLS and needed a lot of work. Plenty of room for profit and we wanted to learn the ins and outs of a DIY project.

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

On the MLS. This was our seventh offer that we had submitted in 2 months as we had a strategy to only accept 20% less than asking, which this one did.

How did you finance this deal?

20% down at 5%.

How did you add value to the deal?

Updated EVERYTHING but the basement bathroom.

What was the outcome?

We netted $60k.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Some things should just be hired out to save time. Time is money!
