The Real Estate Bridge BuilderImagine you’re a bridge builder.

As far as being your own GC, also known as 'Owner/Builder', everyone should be aware that most states (California is one, I looked up GA and it seems they may be as well) do not allow an investor to act as a GC on any property except their primary residence, and even then there are limitations.So check local laws before starting down that road.....

Say you bought two lots in Cape Coral late 2020, went through a turnkey company who had connections with a builder.

On a new build $275k is the sweet spot but if you go up to like $320 it better have a steep roof 9ft ceilings and curb appeal front or it will sit up to 90 days before selling.Its basically what most people can afford around here.I would take more of a data approach to this instead of guessing. in our market all new builds combined that sell on the open market is about $550k. we build between 350k and 500k. we also stay in line with where national tract builders build in our market which s 400-600k but we like under 500k in Columbus Ohio. in miami it's similar in suburban markets  

Previously, I dedicated many years to selling custom and semi-custom residential properties for a highly respected and well-known builder in Atlanta.

I am trying to get some sustainable builders established in a "spec home" subdivision.

I would rather partner with an experienced builder than hire him.

With proper property management, it's not an issue being out of state.You can work with a turnkey company or directly with builders that offer the same services for your first property.
