If you’re a real estate wholesaler struggling to lock in deals because of limited funds for earnest money deposits (EMD), you’re not alone. Many wholesalers miss out on profitable opportunities simply because they don’t have fast, reliable funding. That’s where Oakstone Lending comes in. We are the go-to partner for real estate wholesalers across the country who need creative finance options for EMD funding.
We specialize in creative finance and EMD funding, helping wholesalers like you secure the capital needed to close residential, multi-family, and commercial deals. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or new to wholesaling, our fast, transparent process ensures you’ll never lose a deal due to funding issues.
Why EMD Funding Matters in Real Estate Wholesaling
An earnest money deposit (EMD) is the initial good-faith payment you make to show a seller you’re serious about a deal. But let’s be real: not everyone has thousands of dollars sitting around to lock in a property. Without EMD funding, you risk:
- Losing Deals: Sellers won’t take you seriously without the deposit.
- Missed Opportunities: Competitors with access to quick funding can swoop in.
- Slower Growth: Lack of capital stifles your ability to scale.

- Speed: Automated systems get you funded fast.
- Flexibility: We handle deals from $1,000 to multi-million-dollar closings.
- Transparency: A simple 40% fee for EMD funding.
How Creative Finance Works for EMD Funding
Let’s look at how we can help with detailed examples.
Residential Deal: EMD Funding Example
You’ve found a residential property valued at $250,000. The seller requires a $10,000 EMD to secure the contract.
- EMD Amount: $10,000
- Oakstone Fee (40%): $4,000
- Payback Amount: $10,000 (principal) + $4,000 (fee) = $14,000
You assign the property to a buyer for $270,000, earning a $20,000 assignment fee. After paying Oakstone Lending, your net profit is:
$20,000 – $4,000 = $16,000
With our funding, you’ve secured the deal, closed the contract, and pocketed a substantial profit—all without risking your own capital.
Multi-Family Deal: EMD Funding Example
Now let’s scale up. You’re targeting a 10-unit multi-family property valued at $850,000. The seller requires a $25,000 EMD.
- EMD Amount: $25,000
- Oakstone Fee (40%): $10,000
- Payback Amount: $25,000 (principal) + $10,000 (fee) = $35,000
You wholesale the property for $900,000, earning a $50,000 assignment fee. After repaying Oakstone Lending, your net profit is:
$50,000 – $10,000 = $40,000
In this scenario, our funding allows you to scale into larger, more profitable deals.
Double Closing Example: Commercial Deal
Let’s say you’ve found a $2 million commercial property, and you plan to double close. Oakstone Lending provides the funding you need for the initial purchase.
- Loan Amount: $2,000,000
- Oakstone Fee (1.5%): $30,000
- Payback Amount: $2,000,000 + $30,000 = $2,030,000
You sell the property to an end buyer for $2.2 million, earning a $200,000 gross profit. After paying our fee, your net profit is:
$200,000 – $30,000 = $170,000
With Oakstone Lending, you’re able to close confidently, knowing the funding is secure and affordable.
