Need help funding deals

Wyatt Dixon

I have been able to find good deals on properties that need to be fixed up, but I don't have the funding needed to fix them or even buy them. I know that there are private money lenders I just haven't been able to find one, and I have searched through the Internet forever. Any advice on where to find them and get them on board with my business plans? Or even where to find a JV partner?

@Wyatt Dixon Now those properties sound good.  @Account Closed posts and such.  They have a massive buyers list for their projects.

What are you brining to the table besides the deal?  Some cash always makes investors happier.  "Skin in the game" is the term I hear most often.  Do you have good credit that could be used with someone else's money to secure the properties?

Do you have a trade you can offer?  Any ability to do work on the property that doesn't involve cash flowing out the business?  This can be anything from a family connection to a greenhouse all the way up through a GC license on top of your electrician license.

You mention good ARV and such but how realistic are your numbers? What about your background says your repairs numbers are accurate?
