Right now the only utility at the garage is power so basically I am starting with a frame and a roof. 

for fix and rental projects or for fix and flips?

I was thinking 40k but seriously idk jack squat so just a guess based on mostly past user growth projections.

@Matthew DrouinThe one I'm looking at right now is a smaller 8-unit project - only around a $100-125k equity raise + loan guarantee.

I have spent the past 12 months as an independant contractor and wish to finance a project.

The builder could easily take on the project itself.

Do you have any projections for what will happen with the insurance market for this year, or is it even possible to project? 

Is it better to have a job or business that is doing well, then funnel the money into larger projects, if my desire is to be one of the main GP for like 33-100 unit multifamily projects?

Been moving along with this project. 

A buddy of mine who invests out in Phoenix once had a client facing a similar timing mismatch on a rehab project.. they ended up working closely with a local credit union who was more open to interim valuations.
