Investment Info:

Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Purchase price: $590,000
Cash invested: $118,000

Primary residence purchased in 2015. Was a fixer-upper that my wife and I renovated ourselves over a two year period. Real Estate appreciated a lot during Covid, so our home has been a great investment.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Renovated the entire home.

Have a lot of equity in the property

Renovation took twice as long as I think it should have because I did much of the work myself.
