Really fun activity but also requires alot of energy and meditation to determine the right kind of structure to grace the land and also frame the view of the soft prairie slopes.So I travelled to Sedona I didn't buy property there I wish I had that kind of wealth haha.

I also reduced a lot of the soft expenses (office, accounting/legal).

Quote from @Jonathan Greene: Quote from @James Hamling: Thing is @Jonathan Greene, your message, as true as it may be, comes across to a whole generation like that of the person giving away apples and tooth brushes for Halloween..... 

Soft Costs and Professional Fees - Could you share insights on budgeting for architects, engineers, project managers, and legal fees?

Hell, I might be even-steven if we had one, and I'd bet money @Russell Brazil and @Nathan Gesner would be there with me despite the fact they're two of the smartest dudes in here because they're not soft pedalers.

Develop an extensive email list of “interested parties” and periodically contact them with “soft advertising”.4.

I know dang good and well these "note students" are not getting that type of education.I paint with a broad brush, mainly because I can hold a big brush

Soft cost, carry cost, offsite and fees/.2 = 10,000,000 Total Build Cost 40 pads= 250k per pad Cost [250k/$150 per square ft = 1666 sqft per unit] 250k per pad x 20% = 50k for land ready to build. 

Quote from @Evan Polaski: @Carlos Ptriawan, you are talking about syndicators and passive investing with very broad brush strokes, but then comparing to your unique direct investing experiences.  

buy and sell more real estate.....side note: Its a reason its hard asset and not a soft asset....IMO nothing beats land and property.
