$15k assignment fee from my cash buyer partners with a 14 day close. Rehab is still in progress and should be all in at around $150k or so. They are shooting for ~$100k net profit, ARV between $680k-$700k.

Lessons learned? Challenges?

On these deals you need to take action and get it under contract quick and make very fast decisions. The sellers had another "buyer" negotiating back and forth wasting time and I just paid them the number they wanted right away and locked it up within the hour because it was well under what I needed my number to be to fit my formula. The other buyer being greedy is what lost them the deal.

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

Myself!
