@Margaret Steck 

Thank you, Margaret! I’m excited about this opportunity and would love to connect further. Let’s definitely touch base and discuss how we can bring this deal to life. Looking forward to collaborating with you!

@Jonathan Klemm Thank you so much for the encouraging feedback! I truly appreciate you taking the time to read through my post. I’d love to connect with any Chicago investors currently offering private money. I’m actively looking to build strong, long-term partnerships and I’m ready to move forward with the right team behind me. I’ll also reach out to @Jennie Berger – thank you for the recommendation!

My name is LaSparkle Hopkins, and I’m an aspiring real estate investor based in Chicago, IL. I’m actively seeking financing or a partnership opportunity for a highly promising off-market deal in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood, which is undergoing revitalization and has strong rental demand.

Here are the details of the opportunity:

Property Info:

  • Type: 2-Flat Multi-Family w/ Unfinished Basement
  • Location: Auburn Gresham, Chicago, IL
  • Purchase Price: $100,000 (off-market deal – seller is a personal contact and motivated to sell)
  • Condition: Needs renovation — ideal for value-add
  • Exit Strategy: Fix, Rent, and Refinance (BRRRR Method)

My Profile:

  • Credit Score: Mid-600s
  • Experience: While I do not yet have completed flips under my belt, I am working closely with licensed contractors and real estate professionals to ensure the project’s success.
  • Commitment: I have a clear rehab and rent plan, strong knowledge of the market, and am looking to scale in multi-family investing.

What I’m Looking For:

  • A private money lender or investor open to financing the acquisition and rehab.
  • Open to equity sharing, interest-only short-term terms, or a JV (joint venture) structure with a defined exit.
  • I’m also open to mentorship-based partnerships where both parties benefit.

Auburn Gresham is one of Chicago’s next hot rental markets, and I would love to collaborate with someone who believes in community revitalization and solid returns.

Please feel free to DM me or respond below if you're interested in learning more. I'd be happy to share my full scope of work, projected ARV, and rental comps.

Thank you for your time and consideration!
