About This Service

Investment Property / BRRRR in Carlton County

Carlton County offers some of the most accessible entry-point investment properties in Northern Minnesota. With sub-$100K acquisition opportunities, improving rental demand from the I-35 corridor workforce, and proximity to the Duluth metro, the BRRRR math works here when you know what you're buying and what it costs to fix.

We are active BRRRR investors in this market ourselves. When we scope a rehab for an investor client, we're running the same numbers we'd run on our own deal — ARV, rehab cost, refi target, cash flow. We'll tell you when a deal works and when it doesn't, and we'll tell you why.

Workforce housing demand in Carlton County is consistent — driven by the I-35 corridor, Duluth metro employment, and an under-supplied rental market at the lower price point. We underwrite properties with that tenant pool in mind and make sure the rehab scope matches the rent achievable in this market.

Our Standard

Every project executed under Big Birch Building Co. LLC is permitted, licensed, and insured. We hold a Minnesota General Contractor license (Qualifying Builder) and are affiliated with Elite Realty for real estate services. Trustworthy, hardworking, honest, fair — that's the filter for every decision we make.
