The Investor’s Financing Playbook: Fast Loans, Smart Strategies & Creative Capital
Join Ryan Walsh for a practical breakdown of how investors can secure the right funding for any type of deal—whether you’re flipping, building rentals, or tackling properties most lenders won’t touch.
This session dives into how to pair the right loan with the right strategy so you can move faster, close stronger, and scale smarter—even in challenging markets.
What You’ll Learn:
- How fix & flip, bridge, and cash-out loans each fit into an investor’s strategy—and when one is more profitable than the others.
- Why bridge loans are the accelerator for BRRRR and rental investors looking to move fast without getting stuck on seasoning or slow bank timelines.
- Creative funding solutions for heavy rehabs, odd properties, large acreage, or deals that need second-position or hybrid (private money + seller financing) structures.
