Why I liked it
It was a good-sized house with a big lot and lots of potential at a low price point.
Deal structure
50/50 JV Split
Deal outcome
The rehab took longer than planned thanks to some items on back-order being delivered incorrectly, causing me to go through back-order again.
It was worth it though, as the finished product came out GREAT. Clearly the potential buyers who visited the property thought so as well because I had multiple offers above asking before it had even officially listed.
I ended up selecting a slightly lower offer, because they were all contingent on an appraisal so it didn’t matter how high the offer was if it wouldn’t appraise that high.
The offer I chose was just below the highest offer, but that buyer was able to cover a delta in the appraisal if it were to come in low. (It ended up appraising for right at the purchase price, so it wouldn’t have really mattered if we’d chosen the higher offer anyway).
