Western Washington Spec Building

[Christopher Bowen]

Hi BP,

I am curious if there are any investors out there doing spec builds in Western WA State (specifically Snohomish County) that wouldn't mind sharing some advice? Is this a good time to get into it? What are the pros and cons specific to this area? Are you having trouble getting construction loans? Would you advise rehabbing over spec building? Anything you can share would be helpful.

I bring this up because home sales are on a rapid rise here and the flip deals are few and far between.

Thanks,

Chris
