Looking for KP/JV Partner for Creative Commercial Acquisition (Roanoke, VA)

[Steven Lester Haskins]

Hello,

I’m looking to connect with experienced KP/JV partners who understand creative commercial acquisitions and can strengthen the balance‑sheet side of the capital stack.

Here’s what I’m working on:

About Me

• Based in Roanoke, VA
• 20+ years in engineering/operations
• Director of CAPEX for a major manufacturing company
• Live on‑site at one of the target properties
• Strong operational background: systems, stabilization, NOI growth, and value‑add execution

What I’m Doing

I’m pursuing mixed‑use and multifamily acquisitions in the Roanoke market using creative structures (primarily Master Lease Options) to:

• Take operational control
• Stabilize the asset
• Increase NOI
• Refinance in 18–24 months
• Execute a clean purchase at a predetermined price

I already have:

• Underwriting
• 30/60/90‑day stabilization plans
• Refinance strategy
• Operational blueprint
• Local market knowledge
• On‑the‑ground presence

What I Need

I’m looking for a KP/JV partner who can:

• Strengthen the balance sheet
• Sign on commercial debt at refinance
• Potentially participate in the capital stack
• Work with creative structures (MLO, seller‑friendly terms, etc.)
• Partner on deals where the value is created through operations, not speculation

What I’m NOT Looking For

To save everyone time:

• Not looking for fix‑and‑flip lenders
• Not looking for retail hard‑money funnels
• Not looking for credit‑score‑based loan products
• Not looking for “send your deal and fill out this form” shops

If your model is origination fees, we’re not a fit.

If your model is balance‑sheet partnership + equity alignment, let’s talk.

Deal Profile

• Mixed‑use or multifamily
• Value‑add or operational upside
• $1.5M–$5M range
• Stabilization potential within 18–24 months
• Strong local demand drivers
• Creative structure required due to seller expectations or financing constraints

Next Step

If you or your group participates as a KP, JV equity partner, or balance‑sheet partner on commercial acquisitions — especially creative ones — I’d like to connect.

Drop a comment or DM me and we can set up a call.
