@Sasidhara ManthenaCongratulations on getting started and even mores so developing a specific strategy.

In the long run, I aim to become a broker and delve into development, but for now, baby steps :PHappy to be here, to learn, and connect with the community!

I heard we can buy from developers or builders directly.Not sure whom to contact.Appreciate if you can share some insights on how to proceed, whom to contact ,where to look for ?

We have had a crack in the stucco patched up in 2016, then major exterior work done in 2019 to our house (and our whole development due improperly installed windows, no drainage, rotting wood/stucco damage - builder fortunately paid after getting lawyers involved).

We took that money out in a HELOC to complete our first flip, to a development, to 9 unit buy and hold and now have grown to 25 units in the matter of a few years.

I’m in commercial construction, and new construction has it’s risks, especially if you’re acting as the developer in the deal.

This is double-effective, because it helps you build your network of lenders, handy people, contractors, title partners, private lenders, etc who...if the proper relationship can be developed will show you what the MLS can't.  

That is all I want my software to do.So, I develop all my own software for all my businesses and I do not use one canned piece of crap.For those who don't know how to develop software applications all you need is Excel with a few columns e.g. one column for:Payee and deposits DateCheck #Reason (Category)DebitCreditBalanceand that is all you need.

Determine what the end goal is and develop the skill that will get your closest to that first.I also don’t usually recommend being both unless you plan on putting significant effort into being an agent as there are fees involved with being an agent that make if expensive if you aren’t actively using your license.Good luck!

Very into self development, fitness, and surfing.
