Liquid Lending Facilitating a Highly Profitable ‘Whole Tail’ Deal In Bellevue, Nebraska

An experienced real estate investor found an incredible off-market deal in Bellevue, Nebraska, but had a very short window to close. By partnering with Liquid Lending Solutions, the investor secured the necessary capital in record time, successfully executing a "whole tail" strategy for a substantial profit.

"You need to have access to capital to put into a deal that you may only have a very short window to buy." Owen Dashner, Co-Founder of Liquid Lending.

Introduction

Bellevue, Nebraska, is a great market for savvy real estate investors. It's a stable, blue-collar town benefiting from a local Air Force base and numerous commercial developments. Bellevue also offers excellent pricing on starter homes and move-up properties, making it highly desirable for quick turnarounds.

In this instance, the investor wanted to take a "whole tail" approach rather than a standard fix-and-flip. A whole tail deal involves buying a property at a great price, cleaning it up, and then relisting it on the MLS at market value without extensive renovations. This strategy leverages market pricing to deliver maximum returns in minimum time.

However, executing this kind of deal requires immediate access to private capital. Traditional lenders could never move fast enough to meet the deal's requirements, so the investor needed a trusted private lending partner who understood the velocity of money.

The Solution

Liquid Lending Underwrote and Funded the Loan in Record Time

When the investor brought the Bellevue deal to Liquid Lending, our team immediately recognized its potential. We understand that in real estate, speed, certainty, and execution are the absolute keys to a successful transaction. Our firm is built by real estate investors for real estate investors, so we don't rely on slow banking metrics.

"We underwrote it, quickly ran comps, validated the veracity of the buyer's information, and we funded it," noted Owen Dashner. By providing fast, flexible hard money, they effortlessly secured the funds needed to purchase the property and cover the light rehab budget. Best of all, they accomplished this without draining their own personal liquid cash reserves.

The Outcome

The Client Sold the Property for $240,000 in Just Weeks

With the funding secured, the investor closed on the property, performed a minimal cleanup, and listed it on the MLS. In just a few weeks, the home sold for $240,000. This lightning-fast timeline meant their carrying costs were minimal, and the investor walked away with a fantastic $30,000 to $35,000 profit on a single, fast-paced transaction.

"That's a really good spread, and I think anybody would do that deal 10 days out of 10... I would do that as an investor every day of the week." Owen Dashner, Co-Founder of Liquid Lending.

The Takeaway

This successful Bellevue whole tail deal proves that speed is an investor's most valuable asset. Having a lucrative opportunity means nothing if you can't secure the capital to close before the window shuts. Liquid Lending provides the fast, reliable hard money needed to take down highly profitable, time-sensitive properties.
