Investment Info:

Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

Purchase price: $175,000

Partnered with 3 other guys to flip this house. ARV looking to be around $315,000 with a $50,000 rehab budget....

We have a few single family properties under our belt and our last investment was a new construction duplex, and are interested in leaning into the small multifamily a bit more. 

This seemed like a good deal in good area for first one under my belt, but it took capital and was something of a lateral play. 

Now that I’ve gotten my first deal under my belt, I’m eager to learn from those of you who’ve scaled successfully—especially in tighter markets where finding good deals or value-add opportunities is tough.Looking forward to networking, learning, and sharing the journey.

Are you sticking to the bigger Sun Belt markets where build‑to‑rent is booming, or are you exploring secondary cities that have large pipelines of future developments?

You might also consider co-sponsoring your first few deals, to get some deals under your belt without having to do all the heavy lifting yourself. 

Once you’ve got a few under your belt, you can always scale into more active projects if that’s your goal.

Your idea of renting out your current home could be a great way to get your first investment property under your belt, especially if you can get close to breaking even or slightly positive cash flow.

I would like to join a mastermind when I have a few properties under my belt.

Congrats on getting the first rental under your belt.
