All,

Anyone who know some local crafty CPA's that are well versed with real estate/business who can help with preparing and filing in TAMPA?

Much appreciate!

 Apologies for the late response. I have not put together a pro forma on the project and would appreciate some guidance on it.

 I'm an IT project manager. No previous construction, development or engineering background.

All,

Beginner jumping right into development. I closed on a piece of land .6 acres in Tampa and looking to build 10-12 apartment units. Just closed 2 days ago, so we are at the very beginning. I know finding the right GC is like searching for the ideal spouse. Any recommendations of GC's in Tampa with apartment development experience? Should I hire my own architect/engineer or lets the GC handle it all? Your input is much appreciated.

Thx

@Jeff S. - Very valuable information you provided. I appreciate you taking the time to write this and I'm sure anyone else who is venturing into the same category can benefit from it. This journey will definitely take much due diligence and effort on my part. I think your suggestion with buying existing notes from lenders to get my feet wet might be a good route to go!

 I have money to lend and would like to lend direct. 

 That is the book I will buy. Thank you!

Hi All,

Would love to learn how to lend money privately, underwriting deals vs junk, ins and outs. Where to begin and best to learn? Your feedback is much appreciated.

Regards,

David

@Kristina Kuba - where are these no short-term restrictions properties in Tampa?
