@Garrett Prenger 

In West Central Ohio, I’ve had luck networking with local wholesalers, attending investor meetups, driving for dollars, and pulling targeted lists from county records (pre-foreclosure, absentee owners, etc.). Pairing that with consistent follow-up has been key to finding solid off-market flips.

@Season Kruspe 

Light rehab in many Texas markets can run anywhere from about $15–$30 per sq ft depending on finishes, labor rates, and city. So for a 2,000 sq ft property, you might be looking at roughly $30K–$60K. Always get local contractor bids, though — prices can shift a lot between, say, Dallas and smaller towns.

I’ve been talking with several investors lately who’ve had promising fix & flip deals slip away simply because financing didn’t come through in time.
By the time the bank gave the green light, the property was already under contract with someone else.

For those of you flipping:

- How are you making sure financing is ready fast enough to compete?

- Are you working with private lenders, using cash, hard money, or another route?

- Any strategies you’ve used to get both the purchase and rehab funded without long delays?

From what I’ve seen working alongside other investors, the difference between funding in days versus weeks can be huge — not only for winning offers but also for keeping the entire project on schedule.

What’s been your fastest turnaround from deal to closing?
And what’s the biggest bottleneck you’ve run into?

Looking forward to hearing what’s been working for others.

I've been talking with a few BRRRR investors lately who lost out on great properties because their financing took too long to come through.
By the time the lender was ready, someone else had closed.

For those of you doing BRRRR projects — I'm curious:

- How are you securing funds quickly enough to compete in today’s market?

- Do you lean on private lenders, hard money, lines of credit, or something else?

- Any strategies for covering both the purchase and rehab without waiting months?

In my own experience working alongside investors, I’ve noticed that having a fast-approval, investor-focused financing option can completely change the pace of a project.
When funding is ready in days, it's so much easier to stick to the BRRRR timeline and avoid missing deals.

What’s been your fastest turnaround time from deal finding to closing?
And what’s the biggest delay you’ve faced?

I’ve been hearing from a lot of investors lately who’ve had great deals slip away simply because their bank couldn’t move fast enough.

By the time the loan officer got around to approving the deal, the property was gone.

I’m curious — for those of you doing fix & flips:

- How are you speeding up the financing process?

- Are you using private lenders, cash, or something else entirely?

- Any tips for getting purchase + rehab funded quickly?

In my own work with investors, I’ve seen fast-approval, investor-focused lending make the difference between landing a deal and losing it.

It’s eye-opening how much smoother a project runs when funding is lined up in days instead of weeks.

Let’s hear it — what’s your fastest funding experience? And what slowed you down the most?

Hello.

This is Kelly Schroder. 

I am a newly minted Certified Private Money Broker, so just getting started in the business. 

I'm not sure if this event is right for me or not, but I'd like attend, gain some exposure, and network, if possible. I'm sure I could learn from the experts.

I would also be interested in becoming a WiscoREIA member if there is a position open. 

I do live in Oregon.

Thank you for your consideration, 

Kelly Schroder
