Architect as Developer

[Milan Mehta]

Hi All!

I am new to Bigger Pockets, but not new to Real Estate Investing.  I am licensed Architect with about 17+ years experience working with clients in the both public and private sectors.  Over the last several years I have also "hired myself" as my own client and developed new residential and multi-family homes.  In other words, I have obtained financing, bought land, designed homes, built from the ground up, and managed and sold the properties.  I have worn many hats:  Architect, Developer, Owner, Contractor, and Property Manager to name a few.  There has been no better education than to go through this experience to prove to myself that it is possible.  Being at both sides of the table (Designer and Owner) has allowed me understand where I can get the most "bang for the buck" when designing new or renovating existing homes.  

I have done work in central Pennsylvania and Maryland, and for various reasons am looking to expand to the Raleigh, NC - Research Triangle area.  I hope to expand my network in PA, MD and NC so I can find the next piece of land/property to work on!
