The strategic location in a growing market and the opportunity to significantly increase the property's value through renovations made it an attractive investment.

This makes NNN leases attractive for passive investors.No Property Management: You generally don't need to worry about property management issues, reducing your workload and stress.

I’d guess being fully out vs 2/3 out would be attractive, maybe enough for him to help you get there by financing a portion of the purchase price. 

Hi @Charles Antoine Malenfant I have been doing business in the area for over a decade and I will let you know if done right you can attract very high rents with proximity to train. 

Partner Driven was attracted to the Persimmon Lane deal in Shepherdstown, WV, due to its quick turnaround potential and strong profit margin.

None of that shows on the rental history so it looks like the price has tanked and has attracted a lot of bargain hunters. 

I found a couple of properties in decent school areas but it is pretty far from Huntsville and the P/R ratios are not that attractive.

The strategic location in a thriving market and the opportunity for a fast, profitable flip made it an attractive investment opportunity.

Then from a "getting business" perspective you will be able to document your story and share it with others to attract leads. 

For example, seller may have 4.5% debt and so current NOI is worth more to seller than a new buyer who has to pay 6.5% debt.Seller finance is a great tool too.My only caution is to NOT overpay for a property in exchange for seller finance at an attractive rate.Here is a hypothetical say market cap is 7.0%.New conventional debt is 6.5%.But seller will carry at 5%.With seller finance at 5%: What price does one pay?
