I was the original and only owner of a new construction property built in 2005.

You also have two major holidays coming in the US (Thanksgiving and Christmas and construction will slow down as people take time off).

Most of the guests are on their way into town for a permanent move but need a place to stay for several months to facilitate a closing, complete construction, etc.That avatar and sellers who want to cash out and look are the sneaky win for MTR right now in my opinion.

Also, I like your podcast; it's been really helpful.The need to point out what someone doesn't know and how poorly they have constructed a forum post doesn't help anyone. 

In a real estate borrowing context it's most commonly used in construction and bridge debt originated by banks.  

There is much less new supply of single family homes, so the rental rates are flat to up a little; this does depend on the neighborhood though, in some of the fringe areas where there is a lot of new single family home construction the rents are a little softer.

@Danilo Grullon, quick google search says average architectural work is 10-20% of overall construction cost.  

@Helene GoodworthTo expand your network, identify your areas of interest, highlight your construction skills' application to investment projects, actively participate in local and online groups, and seek mentorship and guidance from experienced investors.

Do yo typically get a construction loan then need to refinance out ?

Has anyone ever purchased these pre-construction condos with little to no issues (mainly no scam)?
