Mission: Revitalization
ReadySet started with a problem too big for one flipper — and too urgent to ignore. Today, that same system is scaling nationwide, turning vacant homes into revitalized neighborhoods in every market that needs one.
The Origin
Over 20 years and 1,000+ homes in the St. Louis metro, co-founder David Wolf built and refined the playbook — deal math, scope, budget, execution — that turns distressed inventory into owner-occupied housing.
St. Louis sits on a 30-year runway of vacant inventory: 9,000+ vacant buildings inside the city, 28,000+ vacant parcels metro-wide, and a city government actively asking the private market to step up. It was the perfect proving ground. The tools that became ReadySet were forged in exactly that environment.
Owns 11,500+ city properties available for rehab. ReadySet enables flippers to source, bid on, and manage LRA inventory.
Coordinates vacancy efforts across public and private sectors. Their Vacancy Explorer map feeds the exact distressed inventory ReadySet flippers need.
Mayor Spencer has pushed LRA to accelerate property sales to private buyers and launched a full rewrite of the city's zoning code — getting vacant properties back into productive use.
The National Opportunity
Every legacy American city carries the same weight: blocks of vacant homes slowly decaying, tax bases eroding, buyers priced out of housing that should already exist. The inventory is there. What's been missing is the operating system to put serious flippers to work at scale.
Tens of thousands of vacant homes. Land banks ready to transact. Flippers doing the work deal-by-deal — without a shared system.
Emerging rehab markets with strong ROI and weak tooling. Exactly where ReadySet Community pricing unlocks access.
Growing cities with aging stock. New demand meeting deferred maintenance — and a buyer base that wants verified rehabs.
Wherever vacant homes meet serious operators, ReadySet turns the flip into the fix.
The Mission, Scaled
The system doesn't change when the zip code does. The same deal math, the same scope engine, the same budget discipline, the same ReadySet Certified™ process. Revitalization is a workflow problem. We built the workflow.
Flippers who know their market intimately — now equipped with institutional-grade tooling.
Land banks, housing authorities, and cities with vacancy programs — plugged into verified rehab capacity.
Lenders funding rehabs with transparent scope, budget, and execution data baked into every deal.
Owner-occupants who can trust the process behind the home — not just the finish they see.
A flip in St. Louis. A flip in Cleveland. A flip on your street. Same standard. Same badge. Same outcome: a neighborhood on the way back.
