20+ years. About 200 transactions. A rental portfolio built without his own cash.

Mike Sumsky has been investing in Puget Sound real estate for more than two decades. He owns Washington Home Solutions in Bremerton, where he and his team buy houses and small multifamily directly from sellers, and he serves on the REAPS Board of Directors.

Mike built a portfolio of roughly 50 rental units using private lenders and seller financing instead of his own money. If you've wondered where the money comes from, how to structure the offer, or how to get a seller to say yes to terms, this is your chance to ask someone who does it every day.

Pick his brain about

• Seller financing and creative deal structures, including how to offer a seller more than a cash buyer and still make the numbers work
• Finding 6% (and under!) private money with no points
• Off-market deal hunting and seller follow-up
• Small multifamily and buy-and-hold underwriting
• Flipping and wholesaling, and how to tell which exit fits which deal

And then there's AI

Mike builds his own AI tools. He has ones that analyze a deal from just an address, transcribe and summarize seller calls, track team KPIs, and automate bookkeeping.Bring a laptop and he'll show you what he's running and how you could set up something similar in your own business.

The details

Coffee with Mike in Bremerton or Bainbridge Island.  Coming from Seattle? The ferry makes it an easy, scenic trip. Whether you're chasing your first deal or your fiftieth, you'll leave with specific ideas you can put to work.
