About this Event

One of the biggest reasons real estate deals go sideways? A budget that didn't hold up.


Join us for a casual, educational lunch & learn focused on building the perfect renovation and construction budget — the kind that actually survives contact with a real project. This isn't a sales pitch; it's a relaxed conversation and networking session for real estate investors, brokers, builders, and other industry professionals.


We're excited to welcome Kemar Sanders, owner of Black Slate Construction , as our guest speaker. Kemar will share a contractor's perspective on where budgets usually go wrong, how to estimate renovation costs realistically, and what separates a financeable project from one that runs over.


We'll cover topics like:

- How to build a realistic renovation/construction budget

- A contractor's view: where costs get underestimated

- How lenders evaluate a budget when financing a deal

- Leverage, ARV, and how budget accuracy affects both

- Financing options for fix-and-flip and new construction

- Common budgeting mistakes that sink deals

-Tips and strategies for importing materials


Who should attend:

- Real estate investors (fix-and-flip, new construction, buy-and-hold)

- Real estate agents and brokers

- Mortgage brokers

- Contractors and other real estate professionals


Lunch and validated parking is included with your ticket. Space is limited to keep the group small and conversational — grab your spot early!


Featured Guest Speaker: Kemar Sanders, General Contractor, and owner of Black Slate Construction

Hosted by: Andy Levison and Jermaine Curtis, Groundfloor Lending
