Builders & Contractors

From Foundation to Freedom—Build With Strategy, Not Just Steel

Why Builders and Contractors Are Wealth Partners

Keep costs predictable and within lending limits
Suggest build options that improve appraisal value
Identify layout tweaks that reduce labor/time
Get you to cash flow or resale faster
Navigate permits, setbacks, and code challenges early
Real Project Spotlight
A first-time investor bought a 1950s duplex with a 2-month flip plan. The contractor in our network proposed a layout change that cost $6K more upfront—but reduced construction time by 3 weeks and pushed the resale $35K higher thanks to added living space.

Speed + Smarts = Profit

When to Bring in a Builder or Contractor

You’re flipping or renting a fixer
You’re adding a garage, ADU, or in-law suite
You’re buying new construction or building custom
You’re buying distressed property below market value
You’re doing cash-out refi and need renovation bids

First-time home purchase and refinance with fast closing

Great customer service! We were living in California for 20+ years, and every year our rent went up, so we decided to move to Virginia and get our own house. Jim helped us with our very first home mortgage and constantly updated us with the lowering rates. After we were presented with different options, we decided to do a refi, and his team made it possible for us to grab the opportunity to shorten our term from 30 to 15 years at a much lower rate. In just around three weeks we were able to close. Me and my family will definitely recommend them!

Guidance through the purchase process with clear explanations

They worked with me on the purchase process. Their knowledge helped me to choose the option that was most convenient. From the beginning they explained the process. Thanks Jim!

Investor-friendly lender who goes the extra mile

I'm an RE investor. Had multiple loan officers but one really stands out – JIM BLACKBURN. Now, he is working on a third deal with me. He does go the extra mile. A few examples from the past: I have tons of properties and live in China with unique income (he made it work!). He called me in China at 1 AM to get information to close the deal. He is super efficient with collecting the right documents upfront to avoid a lot of back and forth later with processors. You can't go wrong with Jim.
