This is a great way to scale as you build your savings post-college. 

If you're looking to scale it could be worth while to sell and re-distribute that equity with the help of some save leverage. 

Since we just got the certificate of of occupancy literally two weeks ago,  we are looking all options to maximize return on investment. 

Save your money until you get financial backing of some sort.

The time saved on seeing that bigger picture is worth it to me.

So yeah that's not happening, what I am going to do instead is draw up the concept myself in autocad since I know how to do that and then basically will he looking for a young hungry architect that can produce construction drawings off of my concept plans.This will be a grind, I may not finish the concept drawing for another 1-2 months but hey at this point its going to literally save me 10s of thousands and I love this piece anyway.

The importance of lowering expenses and increasing efficiency to maximize property income.

Sometimes those small gestures can save you headaches when construction dust starts flying.I’m curious... now that you’ve pulled off this deal, how would you approach finding your next project differently, and what kind of local contacts would you prioritize connecting with first?

The landscape is just different than even the last 3 years with people making bad calls but getting saved by significant appreciation. 

I get asked all the time, what can I do with $10k and my answer is "save more"  At least in my world of buy and hold $10k is not going to do much.
