With things like the ONE Linden plan in Linden, which is a 50M plan to improve the neighborhood.

Owner-Builder Construction Loan (Challenging but Possible)Some lenders offer owner-builder loans, but they usually require:✅ Strong financials (good credit, assets, low debt-to-income)✅ A solid construction plan, budget, and timeline✅ Proof of prior experience (renovations help, but formal experience is a plus)✅ A licensed contractor or project manager to sign off on the build2.

We plan on starting renovations on the unit in X (I would say a date but in reality have a 2-3 month buffer), and based on this we are no longer going to be renting the unit out.

Quote from @Charlotte Wilson: I have a good down payment set aside ready for my first duplex investment property that I plan to rent out.

I was in both architecture and real estate development for 18 years, so I'll be bringing that experience to the table.Looking to get back into the game with some big plans.

Also confirm if its a planned community sometimes they have multiple HOA (master and local) that this can fall under. 

I dont see how the risk would be reduced on second mortgage unless you are planning to hold the property in some type of llc.

With this plan I would need cleaners and contractors/handymen.

I remember working with a friend who inherited his aunt’s home.. he got so caught up in the emotional side of it that he forgot the nuts and bolts..like having a good plan for the renovation budget and timeline.

What would a bad, decent, and great commission plan be for a lead generator/appointment setter for a house-flipping business?
