Purchased off-market from a REO (tax lien) while being managed by Auben Realty. They also brought the contractor and sold quickly. Added value by converting basement into a bedroom.

How did you add value to the deal?

Converted basement to bedroom.

What was the outcome?

50% Cash on Cash return

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Home had been vacant for years and the Inspector needed a gas mask to enter. Even the worse homes can have a good return with the right team.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?
