Giving the recurring issues with labor quality and scarcity, would you say automation tools like construction 3d printing or other tech are worth exploring?

Hey BP Community,Is the first time I am doing a multifamily ground up construction.

TV developers continue to build new construction, and many folks bought in the market to rent out before retiring in the last 18 months. 

My closing costs were non-negotiable with the seller since I bought new construction, but I would highly recommend upping your offer to talk down the closing costs; use leverage to your advantage since you are young.The funding fee can be complicated and I cannot speak on how it works exactly.

Every team, PMs, construction teams just rob foreign investors.

The costs involved in renovating a distressed property to the same standard as constructing a new home on an empty lot may ultimately amount to a similar total investment.

Join off-market Facebook groups and local RE investor FB groups to get more local information about potential off-market properties, and find investor-friendly RE agents who are willing to work with you.I would recommend for a first deal at least to get something closer to home, easier to get back and forth to for your own sanity, ability to check on either construction or tenants, address repair and maintenance issues.

They also have some plans on HipCamp or elsewhere on google for how to construct an outhouse/composting toilet, though we haven't gotten into that quite yet. 

I imagine construction noise doesn't garner tons of points with guests.
