I’d love to hear more about the project and your experience with selling new construction.

I also use Hubspot for my personal projects but really like Pipedrive as a paid CRM.

Quote from @Clint Miller: Anyone here in the community used construction loans to scale their development projects?

So I would rephrase the question as: what are the pros and cons of Kansas City for buy and hold small multifamily when my goal is cash flow or what are the pros and cons of Kansas City if my goal is fix and flip SFH with large margins on each project.

You have a “full” package including property(s) identified, acquisitions under contract, appraisals performed by MAI appraisers, historical financial statements, pro forma projections, surveys, title reports, feasibility studies3.

+I've researched something called an FHA Construction loan in terms of financing this project, but it seems that most large banks don't offer that product.

A tidy profit, plus confidence to tackle the next project solo.On the topic of self-directed IRAs: While they’re fantastic for gaining experience and diversifying into real estate over time, they can feel restrictive if your main goal is scaling quickly.Here’s what I’d focus on:Using Equity Wisely: A HELOC or cash-out refinance could unlock funds to pursue a flip or duplex without touching your 401(k).Partnering Smartly: Your realtor friend sounds like a great resource.

And you'll have the best rate/points options with a primary residence.Option #2 is great, especially if you're willing to move into one of the units (because the down payment minimum is just 5% or 3.5% depending on program), but as you mentioned it's really tough here to find small multifamily here.

Buying and selling MF on your own going to be pretty tough this gets you going and if by chance you like it and can start to represent buyers and sellers you will make some pretty nice commissions..

Reach out if you need any advice or you have any project initiatives.
