The Challenge

The property had been vacant for 18 months and had significant deferred maintenance. The seller was motivated but the property needed a full cosmetic renovation plus HVAC replacement — a scope that scared off several other buyers.

Our Approach
Negotiated purchase price based on accurate rehab scope, not guesswork
Secured hard money financing at 70% ARV with Wildcat Lending
Built a detailed renovation scope with contractor before closing
Applied Modern Design Lab design direction to kitchen and baths
Targeted finishes that matched neighborhood buyer expectations
Listed within 3 days of renovation completion
The Outcome

The property sold in 11 days at full asking price. The design decisions — particularly the kitchen renovation and exterior paint — were cited by the buyer's agent as key factors in the premium sale price. Net profit of $22,600 on a 4.5-month timeline.

Key Learning

Accurate scoping before purchase is the single most important factor in fix & flip profitability. We identified the HVAC issue during due diligence — not after closing.

The Challenge

The investor had capital to deploy but wanted to build a long-term portfolio without tying up equity indefinitely. The challenge was finding a property where the BRRRR cycle would fully recover the invested capital — not just partially.

Our Approach
Identified property with strong rental demand in Riverside corridor
Scoped renovation for rental durability, not luxury finishes
Targeted post-rehab ARV that supported full capital recovery at 75% LTV
Coordinated DSCR lender connection through Easy Street Capital
Placed qualified tenant within 2 weeks of renovation completion
Refinance completed at $138,000 appraised value
The Outcome

100% of invested capital was recovered through the cash-out refinance. The investor now holds a cash-flowing rental property with zero equity tied up — free to deploy capital into the next acquisition. Monthly cash flow of $280+ after PITIA.

Key Learning

The BRRRR method only works when the numbers are structured correctly from the start. We modeled the refinance scenario before purchase — not after renovation.

The Challenge

The seller needed to exit the property but didn't need a lump sum — they wanted monthly income. The buyer didn't qualify for conventional financing. A traditional transaction wasn't possible for either party.

Our Approach
Identified seller's actual need: monthly income, not a lump sum
Structured a seller carry note at 6.5% with 5-year balloon
Negotiated purchase price that reflected the seller's financing contribution
Minimal down payment preserved buyer's capital for renovation
Renovation scope focused on maximum ARV for eventual refinance exit
The Outcome

The deal closed in 21 days — no bank required. The seller receives $450/month in passive income. The buyer acquired a property below market with minimal capital outlay. Renovation is underway targeting a $112,000 ARV and a conventional refinance exit.

Key Learning

Creative financing isn't about finding loopholes — it's about understanding what each party actually needs and building a structure that serves both. The seller didn't need cash; they needed income.
