Option 1: If you’re confident that the money will come through, you could fund it with a credit card that has a high limit. Use the HELOC to payback the card when it comes through. Option 2: Find private money Option 3: There are small banks that give unsecured home improvement loans in less than a week. I’ve gotten $25K in less than 7 days. That’s all I got off the top of my head. Hope this helps.

@Frank Serrano Chicago provided more opportunity on the lower cost side. I wanted Purchase price and rehab cost under $100K for this first flip. One of my exit options was if the flip was unsuccessful, I could switch to the BRRRR strategy. Take the money out, my experiences and on to the next deal. I want to flip in the North Suburbs but couldn't find any deals that fit that criteria. I definitely plan investing in my area once I find or build financing. I found Brainerd by searching the MLS for deals. Good school district, quiet block, low crime, ARV looked good.

Hello BP nation! I’m Martin from Chicago. Finally posting for the first time. I’m a quiet guy but I will try to be chatty in the forums. I started my first flip 2 months ago and hope to be done by the end of November. Tons of mistakes made but I will learn from them and move forward! Any questions, please ask!
