Realtors & Wholesalers

Two Paths. One Purpose.
Helping you buy, sell, or invest with speed, strategy, and certainty.

Want the right pro for the right move?
Get Introduced to top Realtor Partners or
connect with trusted Wholesaler Partners in your target market.

Not All Real Estate Deals Are the Same. Neither Are the Experts Who Help You Close Them.

Whether you’re selling your primary residence, buying a move-up home, or looking to acquire a discounted fixer-upper, there are two very different kinds of professionals you’ll want on your team:

Use data to guide who you hire:
Run a Buy & Hold projection or estimate Fix & Flip profits to match your strategy with the right partner.

Realtors
The go-to experts for retail transactions—serving buyers and sellers with licensed representation, market analysis, negotiations, and full-service marketing.

Selling or moving up?
Get an Introduction to a high-performing Realtor and review the Buy a House guide for process, timing, and offer strength.

Wholesalers
The specialists in off-market opportunities—working with distressed sellers and investment-focused buyers to connect value-driven deals fast.

Hunting discounts?
Meet vetted Wholesaler Partners and pre-check your flip numbers before you contract.

So Who Should You Work With?


Maximize your exit:
get matched with a listing specialist who knows pricing, prep, and negotiation.

Strengthen your offer with strategy:
model a 3%-down Conventional payment and
review our buyer playbook.

Move fast on opportunities:
get introductions to local wholesalers and
pre-qualify your DSCR purchase for investor-friendly lending.

At Stairway Mortgage, We Work With Both—So You Get the Best of Each World.

Our network includes:

Retail + wholesale, synchronized:
Pair a Realtor for retail sale or a wholesaler for rehab deals to maximize exit value and entry discounts.

Retail + Wholesale, Together

We connect you with both top-performing Realtors and trusted wholesalers—so you can sell retail and shop wholesale simultaneously for max opportunity.

Keep your capital fluid: weigh a Bridge Loan or estimate a HELOC so you can buy before you sell without missing deals.

Dual Strategy Gameplans

Use reverse prospecting, refinance your current home, or pair your Realtor and wholesaler to unlock investment-ready cash flow and rental deals.

Unlock buying power: model a Cash-Out Refi to fund renovations or down payments, then project rental cash flow on target properties.

Smarter Price Positioning

Compare retail and off-market pricing strategies to match your equity, renovation plans, and ideal exit timeline—with expert support from both sides.

Plan the exit while you enter: analyze Build-to-Sell ROI for flips and run long-term Buy & Hold projections for rentals.

Hear From Some Past Clients of Our Founder

Easy and quick refinance with great rates and expert advice.
I recently refinanced my existing mortgage with Jim and his team, and I was so pleased with how easy and quick the whole process was. Jim and his team were very responsive to my questions, and I feel confident that I got the best rate and shaved 9 years off my mortgage. He is very knowledgeable and helped me determine the best option for myself and my family. Definitely recommend him.

Complex loan scenario handled with expertise and care.
The process went smoothly. Jim Blackburn is a lending saint. He knows the market well and cares about his clients tremendously. The team made it really easy to do business, uploading documents and getting forms signed. Our situation is a bit complex. Rather than turn us away for some added work, they dug in to get it done right. They like the complexity, whereas other lenders don’t want to roll up their sleeves. Highly recommend Jim Blackburn for new loans and refinances!

Closed in time for Thanksgiving! Jim and his team were amazing, and we got a much better deal than previous lender.
We closed our loan within 19 days. Just in time for Thanksgiving!! Jim and his team are amazing! We initially had gone with a different loan office and the interest rate and down payment was ridiculous. The owner of the company where my husband works referred us to Jim and we are very grateful for that. We had such an amazing experience with Jim and his team! Since our transaction, we’ve been referring Jim to anyone we know that are thinking of purchasing a house.

Secured financing despite market challenges and self-employment.
Run, don't walk to work with Jim and his team. Jim helped us get financing when it seemed like an impossible feat. It was hard enough to be managing a home purchase 2000 miles away, but add to that an extremely competitive market and being self-employed, and it seemed impossible until Jim's team got involved. Jim was not only responsive; he consistently went above and beyond by making clear recommendations, working his magic, and ensuring that financing wasn’t a barrier for buying our dream house in one of the most competitive markets in the country.

Smooth, fast, and hassle-free mortgage and refinance process.
Jim and his team are great to work with! We have used Jim twice with our home mortgage. Both times, the process was smooth and uneventful (which is what I wanted). He has kept in touch with us and contacted us when he felt it was the right time for us to refinance! I was amazed at our refinancing process – it took them about a little over two weeks to process all our information and close! I love the new online process of submitting all the information they require – it made it super easy for me to organize and gather all the documents.
