Post: Get funding with no capital

I’m reaching out for some guidance on securing funding for my next real estate venture I don't have any capital to start with. I'm aiming to obtain around $100,000 to $150,000 to get my foot in the door.

I come with a solid credit profile, boasting a score of 786 with Experian and 773 with Equifax. I have previously completed a fix-and-flip project, which, despite a few challenges, was successfully sold within 30 days of listing on the MLS. Additionally, I have an LLC established and currently hold a business credit card with a limit of $15,000, as well as two personal cards for $4,000 and 3500.

I have before and after pictures of my fix and flip, if needed.

Any advice or insights on potential funding sources or strategies would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for your time.

I don't own a property, I have no capital. I was thinking about going to my bank to see what options they can provide me. I actually did a fix and flip for an old friend, unfortunately we went over budget due to bad contractor's. That's  another story for another time.

I'm looking for some serious advice on how I can get financing. I'm 24, credit score 772, I have a LLC that not even a year old. I have 3 credit cards, Capital One $3500, Chase $2000 and my business credit card with Navy Federal $15,000 (PG). I want to purchase a property as a buy and hold. I'm not sure how to go about this, I wonder if I can even get funding. Any suggestions will be helpful. TIA


You should start by taking commercial loan officers from your local community banks and credit unions out to coffee. Building relationships here is the absolute best way to get a deal done. In the meantime, get really good at estimating ARV and running pro formas. You will have to sell the banks on your stabilized projections for a property in order to obtain a loan on it. These lenders will be underwriting the property's ability to service the debt.

Talking to a residential broker/loan officer to get a pre approval can be a good start for new investors. Their terms are typically going to be 25% down, with strict underwriting criteria and they care less about how the property will perform as a rental, they want to see debt to income and the borrowers ability to repay the loan.

Hi BP family!

If I go for a business line of credit or loan under my 2 member LLC, would they look at both members personal credit file?

This is very interesting to me. I'm actually considering partnering up with a contractor that did work on a buddy of mine fix and flip. My situation is I have no capital, so I'm looking for someone to invest the downpayment, closing cost, holding cost, taxes, materials and insurance (did I miss anything?) It will go under my llc, I will be using a HML, so what I'm thinking is give him 10% return on his money once the home is sold. He is already going to get paid for the work that he does as a contractor. Does this make sense?

Quote from @Will Barnard:

There are 3 main portions to any flip project and they are not all equal.

1. Sourcing / negotiating the deal

2. Managing the deal

3 Funding the deal

You and any potential partner need to agree on which section is worth what %. I would rank 1&3 higher than 2. With that said, the contractor doing #2 is not worth much more than had you simply hired him on a fee basis rather than partnership.

Who finds your next deal? The division of the funding is the easiest part to figure out. If you both believe that the funding is worth say 40% of the total 100% and you each fund equal amounts, then that section would earn each of you a 20% share. Then add up your other two sections and see where you come out. 

I personally believe it is not worth partnering with a GC unless he/she is bringing deals and funding to the table.
