Our program only requires a small 10% down payment on the purchase price and we will fund 100% of your rehab costs.

Purchase price: $232,500 Cash invested: $45,000 Beautiful fully renovated Shore Acres 2/1.This house really stands out on the block with the new bright paint scheme!

At the price point you qualify for, I'd be looking at a more landlord friendly state with more approachable price points.

It can be a challenge to keep both the purchase price and repairs within the lender’s LTV limits but definitely doable.

This is where if you're very advanced as it relates to social media trends and creating compelling videos you have an opportunity to generate some eyeballs.

The rents are pretty low in the area but so are the prices.

However I have used some of apifys scrapers (for non real estate uses) and was highly satisfied with the value for the price: https://apify.com/tri_angle/redfin-search It looks like it’s for listed properties only?
