Building Duplex From Ground Up

Jay Patel
Posted

Hi everyone,

I am currently getting started in real estate investing and I'm learning a lot from the webinars and from books like the BRRRR and Investing in Real Estate With No (and low) Money Down. I believe I have the basics down, however, I don't know how to apply them in my state

I would like to get started by purchasing land in Philadelphia and building it up from ground. I know this process requires a lot of work but I’m willing to put my all to get started. So far I realize if I want to build a home I need certain permits and an agent before I can proceed. My question is where can I find agents who can help me with the permits as well as architects, contractors, electricians, and mechanics to design a plan to build a new home on a land.

If anyone in Philly has ever bought land and built a new home on that land, can you provide a rough estimate of how much it would cost including the different permits and construction.

Greatly appreciate everyone’s help!
