Land Gives 108k Equity Gain plus Rents Up

Land and Construction is a fantastic way of adding value to your portfolio but for some investors out of reach when it comes to our buying power.
Sometimes you can get into a great area and build a smaller house. We chose a 3 bed 1 bath 1 car house which made it affordable for the investor and also for the tenant. There were many 4 bed 2 bath 2 car properties however the undersupplied niche was 3 beds in this great location.
As you can see with results below it paid off a $108,500 equity gain and rents up over 6 years is a great result!
