Single Family Rental
What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
It was an off market property that we were able to secure before it went live in the MLS.
How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?
Our Realtor found this off market property and we paid a bit over fair market value to keep it out of the MLS
How did you finance this deal?
Conventional financing
How did you add value to the deal?
We allowed the property to sit empty for 5 months with a security deposit and signed lease for a 2-year term at above market rental prices. Property cash flowed better with the higher guaranteed rent rate and vacancy of 5 months than if it was rented immediately at current rental rates.
What was the outcome?
We found fantastic 2-year tenants
Lessons learned? Challenges?
This rental has been wonderful with no issues.
