First Flip in OH Home Run

Danielle Ceplice
Posted

Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

Purchase price: $22,000
Cash invested: $52,000
Sale price: $175,000

First investment property located in Salem, OH. Pre-manufactured ranch style home. I purchased the home in mid January for $22,000 and invested an additional $30,000 in rehab costs for material and labor. The property was gutted down to be completely restored. I personally designed the newly renovated home with trendy "Modern Farmhouse" concepts. With the help of a trust worthy contractor and agent this project was overall smooth sailing. Getting the original owner to except offer took time, and there were a few unexpected costs during the rehab as well as a few mishaps during the inspection for buyers. The house sold within hours of being on the market. I have no previous experience in investing, but I believe my design and networking skills made my first flip project such a home run.
