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

Cash flowing property to balance my portfolio out against other higher value, lower cash flow properties.

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

Found a turnkey operator I liked, followed their deals for a few months until I found one that meet my criteria. No negotiation.

How did you finance this deal?

Conventional Financing

How did you add value to the deal?

Non value add

What was the outcome?

Still renting.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Have had some issues with the property manager that I'm still working through. There were more maintenance issues at the beginning than I thought was reasonable for a large renovation. And not the best communication from the PM.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I found the turnkey provider through a marketer, Jason Hartman.
