Who We Are
Vertically integrated operations for affordable housing.
Midwest Strategic Solutions provides end-to-end operations for affordable and workforce housing across the U.S. Midwest. We manage the day-to-day execution behind acquisitions led by Eight Stone Equity, turning small residential assets into safe, compliant, and stabilized communities. Our focus is clear: life-safety first, disciplined rehab, and predictable outcomes.
“Working with Midwest Strategic Solutions gave us confidence that field operations matched the underwriting. Their photo documentation, inspection tracking, and vendor oversight closed the loop between capital and construction.”
“Getting onboarded was simple and professional. The scope templates and draw procedures made billing predictable, and we always knew what documentation was needed for approval. They run jobs the right way—organized, safe, and accountable.”
"...brought our small multifamily portfolio up to Section 8 standards faster than we expected. Their team kept every inspection documented, and communication was transparent from day one. They treat compliance like a process, not a panic..."
Our Approach
Operations with measurable results.
Every project follows the same proven sequence — assess, scope, verify, execute, document.
Scope Control: standardized templates and bid verification for every rehab item.
Vendor Management: pre-qualified network with insurance and safety compliance.
Inspection Readiness: pass-rate tracking and quality assurance for Section 8 and local housing authorities.
Cost Tracking: draw schedules, before-and-after documentation, and photo evidence.
Compliance Workflow: digital records for all life-safety and code items.
Vendor Network
Join our vendor network.
We work with licensed contractors, maintenance professionals, and specialty trades who share our commitment to quality and accountability. Onboarding is straightforward and built for speed — complete our short form to verify insurance, safety credentials, and scope capacity.
Valid insurance and licenses
Consistent communication and documentation
Reliable timelines and cost accuracy
Familiarity with affordable housing programs
Inspection & Compliance
Life-safety first.
Our team focuses on the fundamentals — smoke detectors, GFCI outlets, secure railings, and structural safety — before any aesthetic work begins. Every property is prepared to meet or exceed HUD and local inspection standards.
Compliance isn’t a phase — it’s embedded in every scope.
Partner Integration
Integrated with Eight Stone Equity.
Midwest Strategic Solutions operates as the vertically integrated field and management arm of Eight Stone Equity, providing unified capital-to-execution visibility.
This alignment eliminates silos between underwriting, rehab, and long-term operations — creating consistency, speed, and measurable accountability.
Illustrative metrics for directional context only and not a guarantee of future results.
