Found my first deal? Advice
While I am rebuilding my credit, I came across an off market house from a friend. It's a 4 Br/1 bath 2 story house with a good metal roof. I can make it a 4br/2bath. When I check out comps, they are in the $140k range.
I was debating on trying to put it under a contract sale (owner finance) and at least get the demo rolling while i wait on my credit.
They want $40k for it, and if I bid out the work it would be in the 50 to 60k range. Of course, as a contractor I can significantly lower that rehab cost.
Should I just wait it out, or get creative and jump on it. I would like to flip it for above market to create some starter cash.
Also, are there loans out there I can hire my company to do the work?
