This 144 unit was an incredibly good opportunity to pick up a great property with a ton of value-add potential. We are putting in a little over 2.2M and learned a lot by using a program they have in Memphis called the PILOT program. It is a tax abatement program for owners willing to put in more than half of the purchase price of the property into reno. Thit was a perfect fit and with our property management company, it is a great situation to be in!
