I currently have a 4 plex, I’m converting them over to vacation/short term. I actively have 1 unit done. It’s been doing great and have bookings into April. 
Im looking for passive or equity investor to finish the other units, 1 is almost done.

Property is located in Sebastian Florida on the Indian River Dr (intercoastal water way). It’s in the heart of dining, shopping and local bars. All within walking distance from the Quadplex.

Please reach out for more info information.

Great Duplex in Downtown Vero Beach, Fl

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

I am looking to build my portfolio in residential and commercial property. When I saw this deal I knew the area and was listed under market value. I monitor a lot of properties and know of a few properties that haven't closed yet which will help with my refinance later.

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

Zillow, I dealt directly with the listing agent. I offer $5K over asking price and was able to get it under contract. After property inspection I was able to negotiate $15K off.

How did you finance this deal?

Hard Money Loan with a 2 year term. Will refinance within the year.

How did you add value to the deal?

I had planned to update the empty unit, but the day I closed I found a tenant that would move right in without doing anything. SCORE!!!! Previous tenant was paying $700.00 and I rented it for $950.00

What was the outcome?

CASHFLOW

Lessons learned? Challenges?

I only had $20K cash to purchase this property. I spoke with a lot of lenders and everyone said I needed over $30K to make it happen. I never gave up and ended closing on the property under $16K in cash
So, when someone tells you NO don't give up. I know the market and what the duplex was worth. i just kept calling till I found a lender that was willing to trust me. The BPO came in exactly where I needed it to be to make this happen.

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

My hard money lender did a great job for me. I would recommend them and will continue to use him. I have 2 deals working at the moment and they are busy at work. Bobby Ash at Optimus Capital
