In this case, they used the Apartment Postcard for a GREAT duplex deal, netting $31,000! Let's go over the details! Duplex SoldFast purchased

More Options - Happy Seller

SoldFast is a unique home-buying company that makes it clear what a seller can get for listing the property and what they can get for a cash offer. A listing almost always offers more money at the end of the day. However, it comes with more time and hassle. SoldFast allows the family to weigh the differences. Not all families need a cash offer. In this case, the family owned and lived in this Multi-Family property for 5 years and are looking to start a new chapter in their life — one with more land. After selling, the plan is to live in their camper until they find their dream lot. SoldFast will keep their eyes out on a new place. They would have netted $50k more by listing the property, but they wanted the flexibility of the cash offer and SoldFast offered a 6-week close to make that possible for them.

Don't Neglect the Small Apartment

Most investors and wholesalers target single-family houses. There's nothing wrong with that —SoldFast generates most of its revenue from single-family houses — however small multifamily properties (like this DuPlex) are hidden gems in each market. They are GREAT cash-flowing properties, are in demand by both investors and families, and provide big margins. SoldFast purchased this Duplex directly from the owners for $302,000 (details below), cleaned it up for $5,000, and listed it for $390,000. Netting (after commission and costs) $31,000 fairly quickly. (NOTE: Sellers were very aware of these numbers. SoldFast operates transparently and ethically to make sure all parties are aware of their choices) Bottom line: Don't neglect those small apartments!
