This property is on a deep 50 x 330 lot and is a 3 bedroom 1.5 bath Cape Cod.The suggested rehab would be to add a level, add a master bedroom/bath, add a 2 car garage, and new kitchen and baths. There is a lot of activity on this street; a few properties are currently under-going rehab and 2 houses are under contract for sale. The previous owner had plans done for a 3,000 square ft house, which were approved and can be included with the deal. Don’t miss out - The projected net profit is over $100,000!

  • Acquisition price - $ 335,000
  • Estimated Rehab Budget -$ 150,000
  • After Repair Value - $ 650,000 - $675,000

This property is currently under contract and will be an LLC purchase. Looking for cash offers only with proof of funds and the ability to close by Feb. 24th. A non-refundable $5,000 deposit will secure the deal. Buyer will be responsible for all certificates. First one with the deposit gets the deal.

Please reply with your email for access to the wholesale package and to be added to my buyer's list.

The person in charge of negotiations with the bank has the ability to get it done quickly if they know what they are doing.  If the listing agent isn't experienced, you can ask to take over the negotiations with the bank. There are a few third party companies that can do the negotiations for you or you can have an experienced agent\lawyer help you out.

When submitting the short sale package to the bank, make sure you are submitting a complete package (which means all of the seller's documentation are up to date). Have your offer in the package with your proof of funds (banks like cash offers) and submit a preliminary HUD. A complete package will get to underwriting quicker! If you are really serious about the property, I would run a title search ASAP to make sure there are no hidden liens or judgements. If there are existing liens, you can inform the bank and try to get them to pay some if not all of them. These are some of the things an experienced agent can do to speed the process up and be proactive.

As others have mentioned though, it is ultimately up to the bank and how fast they want to work.  Best of Luck and feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Can you anyone make recemmondations?

Lastly, what profit % on your initial investment is your minimum that you will settle for?

Thanks!
