Networking in various real estate associations to develop DEEP relationships is part of this program.2.

@Nicholas L.What Nicholas said.I would also develop a list of buyers and what their buy boxes are.    

It is important to look for locations with strong economic growth, rising demand for housing, employment, vacation and infrastructure developments, as well as properties that offer the potential for value appreciation or steady cash flow.

I would probably refi into a DSCR loan.Aside from a relatively inexperienced builder and the risk of a development that isn't "established" yet, what am I missing?

🌎 Hi, I am based in San Diego, CA.💫 We work with rental property
investors and I’m always trying to learn more so we can educate our clients.❓Any insight you could give would be great!

You might still make some money...or you might loose just a little while you learn....but I think chances are unless you totally mess things up or every part of the deal goes wrong, you end up with most of your money back....AND you learn and develop some relationships.

But do note that there are many of these "resort-developments" in the area.

I see that you're a developer so if you were to build apartments instead, you might want to look at data specifically for apartments instead of lumping in houses/townhomes.

Relationships often lead to off-market deals and valuable partnerships.Consider targeting up-and-coming neighborhoods or distressed properties in areas seeing new development or infrastructure improvements.If you’re exploring commercial, maybe start with small multifamily units (like duplexes or fourplexes) before diving into larger complexes.I’d love to connect and possibly collaborate.
