About Us
Our Story
VentureStack was founded by two passionate real estate investors who wanted a better way to find great deals. Mike Kehoe and Tim McGarvey met while living in Chicago while growing their own real estate portfolios. Two lifelong builders, they shared an obsession with making things better. They also had a knack for finding great value in their investments. These principles inspired them to build a company based on a simple statement they kept hearing from fellow investors:
"There are no deals available in today's market".
VentureStack provides real estate investors with better deals.
In today’s market, great value can be hard to find. The MLS has been scoured over and novice wholesalers send out properties with no margin left for the investor. We understand that buying great deals is the easiest path toward financial freedom.
Each week, we provide access to off-market properties that have been meticulously underwritten with the investor’s bottom line in mind.
Unlike traditional wholesaling companies, VentureStack provides a clear and transparent process for investors to buy heavily discounted properties. Our team has completed hundreds of off-market transactions and will guide you each step of the way.
