Looking to find JV partner for fix-and-flip deal
Hey BP community,
I've got a deal under my belt that I'm looking to bring a JV partner into, and I wanted to share the numbers here to see if anyone is interested or has experience in the New River Valley / Southwest Virginia market.
The Property: 1303 Hopkins Dr, Pulaski, VA 24301
https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1303-Hopkins-Dr-Pulaski-V...
A 2,424 sq ft, 3-bed/2.5-bath brick ranch in the Macgill Woods subdivision, which is widely considered one of the more desirable established neighborhoods in Pulaski. Solid brick exterior, attached 2-car garage, 0.56-acre lot, partially finished basement with a second kitchen, and a heat pump HVAC already in place. Built in 1972. Estimated at a mid-level rehab.
The numbers (quick version):
• Asking price: $110,000 (listed at $45/sq ft — well below the county's assessed value of $177,800)
• Contractor preliminary quote: $40,000–$55,000 (contractor hasn't walked it yet, so I'm budgeting closer to $75K)
• Expected ARV: $270,000–$280,000 based on recent comps in the neighborhood
• The most direct comp — 1513 Overton Dr, same neighborhood, same era, same style — sold for $190,000 in May 2026 in as-is/lightly updated condition
• Fully updated comps in the area are hitting $120–$135/sq ft, which puts a renovated version of this property in the $275K–$325K range
• Projected net profit (expected scenario): ~$80,000 after all buying costs, selling costs, carrying costs, and financing
Since this is my first deal, I'm planning to split the deal 60/40 with my JV partner taking 60%. Looking forward to connecting!
Jon
