Purchase price: $550,000 Cash invested: $145,000 Sale price: $915,000 This was a home run for a long term (5 years) buy & hold investment property (I specialize in this area). - Initial investment of $145K (DP+closing)- It had one tenant for 5 years and 3 months (no turnover), and the tenant paid off the mortgage and expenses in those 5 years.- I spent around $30K to do upgrades before selling.- Sold it for $915K after 5.5 years (received $442K at the closing)- Did 1031 exchange and bought 8 SFH in NE & AL worth of 1.6M (brings $4k/months income now) What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Would it be possible to take my $100,000 liquid cash and their equity and go to a lender and get some sort of funding for the rehab?

If it sold for $120K in 2007  , and your rent is $2000 a month , the landlord is probably cash flowing rather well .
