I bought in December of 2022. I did a complete remodel on it. For the first 6 months I ran it as a Airbnb after that I converted it to a long term rental. Coming up to the end of the lease the tenant reached out to me to purchase the property. We sold this using a installment contract. It has a sunset clause maximum of 5 years with no penalty to pay it off early. If it runs the full five years the final sale price will be closer to $821,264 which includes P/I paid to me over the 60 months.

Lessons learned? Challenges?
