A private investor deal desk built around one rule: the property has to survive conservative underwriting, Street View / block context and a realistic financing path before it earns a place on the live board.
I model acquisition financing, investor liquidity, capital gap and exit together. The financing route depends on the borrower, property, condition, experience, reserves and current investor guidelines.
Reviewed September 25, 2026. Expired auctions, pending properties and weaker screens have been removed. Street View is now part of the standard property screen whenever available.
This is a rent-to-basis play, not a $300K ARV story. The 2021 construction and low asking price are attractive, but the street-level context and conflicting bedroom data require discipline. The deal is strongest if the two-unit configuration, insurance and achievable rents all verify.
This is the opposite of a home-run flip. It is a simple income play. The property is still active at $215,000. The deal improves materially if the seller moves into the high $100Ks.
This is the strongest non-auction Baltimore value-add screen in the new pack. It is a 3BR/3BA, 2,400-SF foreclosure that previously sold for $310,000 in 2023 and now needs repairs. The spread is meaningful only if the rehab remains controlled.
The $10,000 number is only an opening bid. The opportunity is the potential spread if the winning bid stays low. A same-street renovated 3BR/2BA property sold for $148,000 in February 2026, which supports a conservative exit rather than a fantasy ARV.
This is the strongest risk-adjusted forced-equity screen in the pack today. The ask is under $300K, the North Ironbound location supports rent, and the finished-value range can create real BRRRR potential. The legal-use discrepancy must be resolved before the deal is promoted as a clean two-family.
This is now the Wilson anchor because Crawford is pending. It has been on market a long time and the seller has already cut price materially, which gives investors room to negotiate. The listing projects about $1,600 combined rent after renovation.
The attraction is scale: four 2BR units in one acquisition. Current reported rents total only $2,850, so the investment case depends on legitimate rent growth and clean legal-use documentation, not on the current income alone.
Home-town cash flow with a hard look at street context, insurance, taxes and DSCR.
Foreclosure and auction screens where total basis must survive rehab and block-level risk.
Multifamily underwriting built around legal use, transit, rent and stabilization.
Wilson is the anchor. Rocky Mount is the portfolio/deep-value lane. Raleigh East stays selective.
