Building the Perfect Budget: A Groundfloor Lending Lunch & Learn
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!
