Good luck.I also plan on visiting PR(san juan for now,  maybe ponce as well) in November for fun and to learn more.

@Jeffrey Bourque Are you planning to finance this with a local bank or credit union?

What’s the plan?

ESP if you are planning to lowball, an agent might be more reasonable to discuss with (seller might get emotional and offended with your offer).

I was thinking this might work on my property in Redding and can be adapted to a shared housing project for seniors (though I'd want rooms large enough for bed, bath and seating area)  It's my understanding that it is considered a SFR with seperated bedrooms as far as planning.

I plan to be here often but have been listening to the bigger pockets podcast for the last year now, and have consistently been saving to make my first investment this year.

The plan is to transition into a new home in 2025 or 2026 while converting this property into a long-term rental.

We plan to build a cabin or cabins for our family use and an STR.

New construction requirements are for the sole purpose of keeping the trades working, elec, plumbing, mech, siding.
