@Nicholas JosephMany of my clients have shared quite a few stories about how they got started in REI and saving up funds to get deals going. 

This is my story, an 18 year old anxious to invest!

Long story short I signed a Buyer's Agent agreement with an agent who we had purchased through (they were listing agent on one we bought) and liked.

Maybe I’m wrong now if they drop 2/3% different story but is there anything to believe that it will?

The average price per land for urban infill going 6-12 stories high on a higher density product is about 5 million an acre up to about 25 million an acre. downtown market premiums I've seen at the highest are 1200 a sq ft. in columbus you can get land about 1.5 million per acre downtown at best price, sells for about 600 a sq ft max, very little competition compared to miami. tampa I didn't really look at too much because miami has 22 zip codes that you can build at least 6 or 8 stories on and just a much better landscape than other markets. tampa is a little bit bigger than columbus but in my opinion more of a suburban market. miami is landlocked and very limited so everything is in redevelopment. both are amazing opportunities but the barrier to entry is much higher in Miami with the smallest plots of land infill going for at least 1.5 million I would say in areas like Wynwood Norte, Wynwood, etc. we looked all over but prefer east of 95 due to the condominium opportunities. multifamily is very strong in both markets but the condo premiums make it almost silly not to do one from the start and the use of deposits versus a single asset lease up and disposition is a longer sales cycle than the condo buildings being sold out prior to completion.

Long story short, so now I will be back to square one where I will be renting without owning any properties.  

Story.

That's a huge achievement, and it sounds like you navigated some real challenges along the way.Your story reminds me of a project I took on years ago.

Iv heard many stories and I feel for you.
