Milwaukee BRRRR — Need GC, Realtor + PM
Hey Milwaukee investors,
I'm an out-of-state investor actively building my Milwaukee portfolio with deals in the pipeline. Looking to add three key team members to my rotation: a reliable general contractor, an investor-focused real estate agent, and a property manager.
What I'm working on:
- Multi-family BRRRR deals (2-4 units, occasional SFH)
- Hard money / no-seasoning refi setup already in place (refi at 80% LTV)
- Strict BRRRR — I underwrite to pull 100% of my capital back out at refi
- Light-to-moderate rehabs, not full gut jobs
- Goal of 10-20 doors over the next 6-12 months
Looking for a GC who:
- Specializes in investor rehabs ($15K-$50K range)
- Provides written, line-item estimates
- Works comfortably with hard money draw schedules
- Reliable timelines and clear communication with out-of-state owners
- Licensed and insured in Milwaukee
- Can handle multiple projects at once
Looking for a realtor who:
- Actively works with investors (not retail-focused)
- Knows Milwaukee's B-class and C-class neighborhoods
- Can pull and analyze MLS comps quickly
- Conservative on ARV rather than overly optimistic
- Comfortable with cash/hard money offers and fast closes
- Understands BRRRR specifically — the difference between a true value-add deal and a "rental resale"
- Familiar with Milwaukee duplex stock and the local rental market (rents, taxes, lead-paint/code requirements)
Looking for a property manager who:
- Manages small multi-family and SFH rentals in Milwaukee
- Has experience in B-class and C-class neighborhoods
- Communicates well with out-of-state owners (regular updates, online portal/statements)
- Transparent, flat fee structure (no surprise markups on maintenance)
- Has a reliable in-house or vetted maintenance network
- Handles tenant screening, leasing, and lead-paint/code compliance
- Can take on units as they come online from rehab
What I bring to the relationship:
- Multiple deals per year, not a one-and-done
- Decisive — I run my own numbers and move fast when deals make sense
- Financing already in place
- Easy to work with and respectful of your time
If you've worked with someone reliable, please share their name (PM is fine). References from your own projects are appreciated. Self-intros from contractors/realtors/property managers welcome too — just include recent project examples or client references.
Thanks in advance!

- Hello Michalis, I would be happy to jump on a call to talk more and see if we would be a good fit. For references, feel free to check some of my reviews. If you would like more, let me know and I can share a few more. As for your criteria for an ideal agent. I feel I fit pretty well.
- Actively works with investors (not retail-focused) - I work almost exclusively with investors and was an investor for 5 years before becoming an agent.
- Knows Milwaukee's B-class and C-class neighborhoods - these are the neighborhoods I and many of my clients invest in, so I frequently monitoring the on and off inventory.
- Can pull and analyze MLS comps quickly - unless I am away from my computer, can generally pull them within 20 minutes of a request.
- Conservative on ARV rather than overly optimistic - I always like to be conservative in all my underwriting. I usually shave a little off my rent projections, ARVs, and average up my other expenses when I estimate my cashflow/cap rate.
- Comfortable with cash/hard money offers and fast closes - doesn't concern me and can connect you with some hard money lenders if needed.
- Understands BRRRR specifically — the difference between a true value-add deal and a "rental resale" - I admittedly have never done a BRRRR before mostly turnkey or light cosmetic properties before, but have been targeting for BRRRR on my next deals plus have been working with other BRRRR investors.
- Familiar with Milwaukee duplex stock and the local rental market (rents, taxes, lead-paint/code requirements) - familiar with all the above.
- If this all sounds good to you, let me know and we can setup a call. I look forward to hearing from you!
