This video tours a co-living / pad-split style property that was bought subject-to and financed in a way that left the sponsors with essentially no money left in the deal after refinancing. The pitch is less about market timing than about creative acquisition, veteran-focused housing, and how a community of sub2 participants helped source, acquire, renovate, and operate the property.

The speaker’s core thesis is that creative real-estate structuring can produce an almost zero-cash deal while also solving a real housing need. The property was bought subject-to for $213,000, additional capital was raised to cover assignment fees, rehab, holding costs, and furnishings, and the team later refinanced with a DSCR loan after the appraised value came in far above expectations. The broader story is that this was not just a profitable transaction, but a veteran-focused co-living project built by members of the same sub2 community. A major part of the video is the walkthrough of how the house works economically. The speaker and Adam discuss bedroom-by-bedroom pricing, with rooms quoted around $700, $800, $900, and $1,000+ depending on location, privacy, and bathroom access. …
Near term, the setup is execution-driven: the property only becomes fully actionable once occupancy approval is in hand and the rooms can be leased as planned. The main tactical risk is permit or lease-up slippage rather than market direction.
Over the next few months, the base case is a stabilized room-rental asset that covers debt service and produces cash flow if occupancy holds and the room mix stays attractive. The thesis strengthens if this model proves repeatable for similar veteran-oriented houses in the same market.
Longer term, the transcript argues that flexible co-living can be a durable answer to affordability pressure, especially for transitional groups like veterans. The structural implication is that community-based operators may extract value from underused housing stock better than conventional single-tenant strategies.
The property was bought subject-to for $213,000 and later refinanced so there was no money left in the deal.
Adam explains the acquisition price, capital raise, and DSCR refinance that paid back the investors and removed the sponsor’s cash.
The house can be configured to hold 13 places for veterans to live.
The property tour repeatedly states the home will ultimately support 13 bedrooms/places, with veteran occupancy as the intended use.
The room rents are structured so the mortgage is already covered by just part of the house.
The speakers say the listed rents cover the mortgage payment before all rooms are leased.
What's the story of this house? Where did the deal come from?
The deal came from Caroline Kane via a wholesaler/dialer who cold-called and reached the person who inherited the property out of foreclosure. Adam and Wes Thompson bought it from her using private money for $213k, raised another $226k for acquisition fees, rehab, and holding costs, then refinanced with a DSCR loan that appraised at $656k, allowing them to pull all their money out and get paid $20k up front.
What is a certificate of occupancy and why does it matter?
It's when you get a permit and the city comes back to say the place is habitable for tenants and confirms it's clean and safe.
How many veterans were involved in this deal?
Four vets were involved: Adam Cadlage, Wes Thompson, Caroline Kane, and the private money lender.
