Investment opportunities
Curated opportunities, from acquisition to exit
Ballagas Realty, together with Ballagas Construction, presents investors with curated opportunities selected for their profit potential. Each one is reviewed from the real estate side and the construction side before it reaches you.
01
Ready-to-build projects
Shovel-ready sites with approved drawings. Skip the entitlement and permit wait and move straight to construction.
02
Fix-and-flip projects
Homes with clear value-add potential, scoped for renovation and resale, with construction costs reviewed before you buy.
03
Land and homes with redevelopment potential
Lots and older homes on valuable parcels in established neighborhoods, where a new home or an enlargement can unlock more value.
One coordinated team handles design and drawings preparation, construction and resale, so you have a single accountable path from acquisition to exit.
Using Ballagas Construction is always optional. Ballagas Realty LLC (BK3390345) and Ballagas Construction LLC (CGC1530999) are separate companies. All investments involve risk. Opportunities are subject to availability and due diligence. Nothing on this site is an offer of securities or a guarantee of any return.
Built for people who buy real estate as a business
Investors
Value-add, fix and resell, and buy and hold. Tell us your criteria and we look for properties that fit, on and off the MLS.
Developers and builders
Lots, teardowns and redevelopment sites in established Miami-Dade and Broward neighborhoods, with a broker who understands what a site needs to pencil.
Landowners
Own a lot or an older home on a valuable parcel? We market it to the buyers most likely to pay for the land.
One owner, two licensed companies
Brokerage and construction under one roof, never bundled

Ballagas Realty handles the real estate side: sourcing, pricing, negotiation and closing. Ballagas Construction is a Florida certified general contractor that builds custom homes, spec homes and major renovations. Because the two companies talk to each other, construction questions can be answered before you commit to a property, not after.
You can use our brokerage without our builder, or our builder without our brokerage. Each company is engaged under its own agreement.
We are also open to joint ventures and favor development deals, where Ballagas Construction is strongest. Start a conversation →
