Just signed rental contracts for my first 2 SFRs
Hey BP family. I am very excited and loving what I am doing and a big thank you to Josh, Brandon, Mindy and the rest of the Team at BP for the encouragement and the challenging blog's, forums and podcast, what inspiration. I just signed contracts and received my deposits and first month's rent on my recently required buy and hold rental properties. Thanks to brandon and his year end 60 day challenge!
I purchased 2 homes using a HELOC against the equity in my home and a rental that I have had for 5 years. Here is how it shakes out.
Propery 1:
Purchased in October from someone wholesaling the property (he was actually looking to me for private money lol). I had met this guy through a PM in my area, this PM would help me with rental forecast for properties I was looking into. Anyway I told the fellow I did do private lending but if he wanted to wholesale I would be intersested in purchasing it. Long story short I purchased from him for 33k, rehab was cost about 42k, my note is 350, insurance is about 70 per month, rent is 1k per month, 25 % for M&R and cap ex. I self manage through my construction business. Postive cash flow of 300 per month.

Thanks again BP for the inspiration!!
