Fix and Flip Project Checklist
A complete package is the fastest way to get a clear answer. This checklist covers what funding sources usually want to see and Central Arkansas items worth checking before you send anything.
We are connectors. We use what you send to introduce your project to funding sources, so the clearer the package, the smoother the conversation.
The property
- Address, property type and number of bedrooms and baths
- The signed contract or the offer you plan to make
- Photos of every room, the roof, the basement and the exterior
- Anything known about water, settlement, wiring or heating problems
The repair scope
- A room-by-room list of work, with major systems named
- Who will do the work and the timeline you expect
- Permit needs, confirmed with the borough or city office
- Safety and structural items listed ahead of cosmetic ones
The resale plan
- Three or more recent sales of similar homes nearby
- Your estimate of the finished value and how you reached it
- The buyer you expect: owner-occupant, investor or rental buyer
- How long you expect the project to take from closing to sale
Central Arkansas items to check first
In Pulaski, Saline, Faulkner and Lonoke counties, look for foundation movement tied to clay soils and confirm flood status for any parcel near the Arkansas River, Fourche Creek or Lake Conway. Ask your contractor about older wiring in mid-century houses and about roof age after hail seasons. Because each city runs its own permit office, confirm what a kitchen, bath or structural change requires in the exact city.
When your package is ready, send your project. For the full process, read how fix and flip funding works in Arkansas.
Common questions
How detailed should my repair scope be?
Detailed enough that someone who has not seen the house can understand the work. A room-by-room list with the major systems called out works well.
What if I do not have contractor bids yet?
Say so and describe how you built your scope. It is better to flag what is still unconfirmed than to guess.
Where do I find nearby sales?
A real estate agent or the public records for the county can show recent sales. Pick homes of similar size and condition in the same borough or neighborhood.
