What’s stopping you from doing your next deal?

[Frankie Vozzi]

Hey BP Community, Frankie here!

In the last few months I’ve noticed a pattern great deals are out there, but financing is the #1 reason investors are hitting pause.

Some tell me: Rates killed their cash flow, Lenders asking for 25% down stopped them cold, Banks move too slow and they miss the deal 

I’m curious, what’s been the biggest roadblock keeping you from pulling the trigger on your next property?

I’ll chime in with some strategies I’ve seen work, but I’d love to hear your take first. Let's connect!

Hey Frankie,
From my experience in Ohio, the biggest hurdle isn't just rates, it's finding creative financing. Deals can still work if you structure them right. I'd recommend local community banks or credit unions; many still do 20% down with faster underwriting. Some investors tap a HELOC or cross-collateral loan for the down payment, or negotiate a small seller-finance second to keep cash out low and cash flow positive.
How are folks in your market getting deals done?
