Becoming a Real Estate Developer

[Account Closed]

Good morning BP. I've been browsing on how to become a real estate developer and am looking for some insight. I've been working on a project to tap into the evolving tiny house market and have ZERO clue as to what a real estate developer does exactly. I get the concept of it, but the devil always lives in the details. I have a business plan, conceptual design, financial estimates, etc. etc.

I've read that being able to have access to $5-25MM is very important and since I'm a "no name", just starting out kind of guy there's risk involved and a lot of it. Especially when attempting to work in a somewhat "new" market.

Thoughts?
