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

It seemed like the simplest way to get started in this area by taking advantage of an FHA loan, with a ready to go rental and a home that could benefit greatly from forced appreciation

Through my realtor and through online research, negotiated mostly on major repairs which were needed while keeping an eye on where the market was heading.

FHA
