Success! My first single family home has been rented.

After months of hard work making property improvements in my spare time we have rented the house. I was shocked how fast it went and if I had more homes I could have filled them too. We had one day of showings and with a contract signed the following day. I listed on Facebook Marketplace and used Tenant Cloud for screening. Purchased the 1953 house for 80k. 1 acre, 1,700 SF, 3 bed, 1.5 bath with 2 car garage and built in work shop. It also has a paved 20ft. long boat or RV parking lot. Spent 12k on all new plumbing and central heat & air. Mortgage/insurance/property tax total is $540 month. Rent collected is $1,200 month plus 10 bucks for a pet fee. Now we can focus on renovating the new investment home we moved into. My wife can’t wait to rent it out too.
