First Deal Went Amazingly, Mother Nature Did Not Approve
First deal went great!
Purchase price- $54,290
Repairs/Expenses- $6,550
Appraisal- $109,300
Expected rents- $950
I won an online auction for the property in January and up to this point everything has went well!
Yesterday I received the appraisal report and although I feel it’s a touch low (of course) I am still delighted with everything.
Today I was informed that a squirrel chewed through the neutral leg of my service drop from the street. This put 250v to a single leg in my panel. So far the damage includes the air conditioner, brand new refrigerator, brand new stove, brand new microwave and several ceiling fans. The utility company claims no liability for acts of nature.
Who is with me that this may be one of the unluckiest, unavoidable first property experiences of all time? No way to due diligence your way around that one haha
Oh well, I figured someone would enjoy laughing at my pain!
