Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment in Greenwood.

Purchase price: $80,000
Cash invested: $175,000
Sale price: $240,000

Punched property with the intentions of using the BRRRR strategy. Unfortunately the house was 200 years old and had some serious issues. Reno cost's went up and eventually we had to fire our contractor due to the it taking 9 months without finishing. We had it inspected and found out the most of the work was not up to code. so we had to spend an additional $40,000 plus to get it done to code and insure the home was safe to sell. Luckily after we finished the house the market went up about $60,000 in that area and i minimized my loss by selling at $240,000 instead of $180,000. a lot of lessons learned and my next flip i started the day this one closed it took 3 weeks to complete and its going to produce a solid profit.
