We placed a Section 8 tenant after a few weeks, Section 8 pays $1,350 per month

Our group wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to create a cash flowing rental in an up-and-coming neighborhood in Detroit

How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

We found it through a wholesaler

How did you finance this deal?

We used DSCR through one of our partners

How did you add value to the deal?

We performed a light rehab focusing primarily on the kitchen and bathrooms

What was the outcome?

We were able to rent this home fast and have had a stable Section 8 tenant every since

Lessons learned? Challenges?

Our team learned that the refinance portion of the BRRRR strategy is heavily reliant on the quality of the repairs. There is a specific set of improvements we will always put in place to ensure the max ARV
