Quote from @Juan V Lopez:
Nice, Brandin! Thanks for sharing. Are you planning on renting each individual unit? Or renting by room since it's close to the university?
Thanks! I've been renting by unit which has been great. I use Jumpoff Campus to list the units and get inquiries pretty quickly.

Update- Was able to get Commerical Equity Credit line for this property through Milbury National Bank. The only lender that I could find for MA property.

Investment Info:

Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $458,898
Cash invested: $114,000

Three Family with 7 bedrooms with large off-street parking, high ceilings. Property is close to shopping, parks and recreation. Updated 2nd floor unit after purchase.

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

Great price for multi-unit.

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

Found deal through Agents' daily emails. Immediately made an offer when it was back on market due to offers being accepted while considering purchasing.

How did you finance this deal?

Personal loans for down payment and commercial loan.

How did you add value to the deal?

Renovated unit 2 immediately after purchase.

What was the outcome?

Was able to increase rent by 48% for that unit. Unit 3 by 15% when tenant moved out months later.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

When you're interested in a property, make a move on it before someone else does.
