It's impressive that you secured a deal like this with no renovations and turned it around the same day.

I’m currently evaluating whether to go with a Fund Model instead of a traditional JV for an upcoming multifamily project, I will be working as a developer looking to do work with a more experienced developer on a larger scale multi-family opportunity.

Even if they do, they also may not let you borrow enough to purchase and renovate a property.

@Thomas FarrellRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

With that said I am looking to do minimal work to renovate the home such as painting and adding new appliances.

Having reasonable expectations, hiring a local professional (Realtor or PM), doing your research, and doing everything right (i.e. pro photos, professional design, good renovation, proper amenities and location, etc) are the keys to success in 2025.

Getting rid of pitbulls, breaking up illegal activity, evicting nonpaying tenants, renovating to the studs so we can get higher rents.

I've used those before for shot-term funding for renovations/rehabs in projects.

So renovate this year, cash out refinance end of next year is totally possible!
