How do you make your rehab stand out without blowing the budget?

Most flips look the same.
And buyers can tell.

If you want your next project to feel intentional, elevated, and worth more, this is a conversation you need to be in.

Nicci Chartrand of Ricco Design is breaking down smart, investor-focused design decisions that increase perceived value, strengthen ARV, and help properties move faster — without overspending.
This is not about trendy finishes. It is about strategic choices.

You will learn how to:

• Choose finishes that create a premium feel while protecting your margins
• Avoid common rehab design mistakes that quietly kill profit
• Design for the buyer or tenant you actually want
• Make your rehab feel cohesive and high-end, even on a tight scope

Whether you are flipping, BRRRRing, or building a long-term rental portfolio, these principles directly impact your return.
Buyers Club brings together St. Louis investors – landlords, flippers, wholesalers, lenders, and vendors – who are actively doing deals and building portfolios.

Come for the design strategy.
Leave with sharper instincts, better connections, and conversations that move your next deal forward.

Real estate is a people business—and no one understands that better than Patrick Tanner. At this August’s Buyers Club Meetup, Pat is breaking down what really drives successful deals: trust, connection, and understanding the psychology behind a seller’s “yes.”

From years of working directly with homeowners, Pat has developed a unique ability to turn conversations into contracts—by focusing on people first. In this deep-dive on acquisitions, you’ll learn:

• Why deals are won (or lost) before the numbers even matter
• The human side of negotiation—and how to build real rapport
• How to identify what really motivates a seller
• The simple mindset shift that can open the door to more opportunities

Whether you’re locking up wholesale contracts, negotiating flips, or building your buy-and-hold portfolio, Pat’s approach will help you connect, communicate, and close with confidence.

Let’s be real—construction is where most investors get crushed.
You buy the right house. You run the numbers. But the rehab? That’s the wild card that turns profit into pain if you don’t know what you’re doing.

At this month’s Buyers Club Meetup, seasoned rehabber Nick Thiele is laying it all out:

• What items really cost
• What each stage of a project invovles?
• How to build a budget that doesn’t blow up
• And how not to get burned by your contractor

This is the stuff most investors don’t talk about—but absolutely need to understand. If you’ve ever been blindsided by a busted budget or a flaky contractor, you already know why this conversation matters.

Construction isn’t a side detail. It’s the whole deal.

This month at Buyers Club Meetup, we’re diving into one of the most overlooked—but game-changing—parts of flipping houses: design.

Alma Husidic is joining us to share how she uses smart, stylish, and intentional design choices to get the right buyers through the door and to the closing table. She’s not just a talented designer—she’s also an investor who flips houses herself, so she gets what really matters when you’re making choices that impact your bottom line.

From layout to lighting to finish selections, Alma will walk us through how she thinks through design on her flips—and how you can apply the same process on your next project to create scroll-stopping, offer-pulling results.

🛠 Whether you’re in the thick of a rehab or gearing up for your next one, this is the kind of practical inspiration that could seriously level up your flip game. Come ready to connect with the best investors in St Louis who are doing real deals right here.
