I heard of delivering payout in segments after key parts of the rehab are completed, but should I hire a project manager or be on site?

.- Robert-Lee don't buy in rural anywhere. property values are lower, rental interest is lower, new construction comps are harder to come by. we build in Columbus Ohio and the things I look for are subdivisions within 5 miles from a large builder delivering at least 2 homes a month or more, 30 miles or less to the city center, public utilities, no flood plain, etc.

There's a similar trend I noticed in Lehigh acres florida. there was a miami based builder who came in earlier this year / late last year and built 5 modern homes. all 5 sold and set record prices for the area for single family homes. it's not that newark calls for this or any infill lot in columbus it's how can I deliver a premium product that will sell regardless of location. something with features that people want. 

What about depreciation of the older buildings with growing new inventory and lots of new construction to be delivered ibn 2024-2026?

Certainly they have guests, mail and packages delivered, etc.

You do have a final walkthrough of the property which is usually within 5 days of closing once the property is vacant (it is in the buyers best interest to make sure the property is empty for this) - that is assuming it’s being delivered vacant.

Over hyped, over marketed and under delivered!  

I have tried to make the numbers work in our area and i cant get new construction for rent to deliver adequate cash flow. make sure you are calculating your costs properly

Are you suggesting that an executive in corporate America doesn't have the ability to manage a team, leverage those with experience, and deliver value for the shareholders?
