Quote from @Jessica Young: Hey everyone, I'm an owner in a tiny HOA in Florida and the owners want to either ban smoking entirely or make a designated area.

I absolutely love the design aspect of the projects.

Specifically, I'm seeking talented handymen to work their magic on light cosmetic enhancements and an ingenious stage designer to infuse the space with their creativity.

BiggerPockets is full of resources designed to help you along your journey, whether you are just getting started or a seasoned investor.

The point is if you're a consumer banking customer you don't offer what their business model is designed for.

CT isn't cheap so if you plan on doing it there you are going to surprised at how poorly you do. maybe in the suburbs I'm not sure but as much as I know people call us from CT and everyone is rich and has lots of money and things are expensive out there. build to rent is a great model. we build 3 story walk up infill and keep it to the residential side. 3 units is the most units before it's commercial and you need engineering, etc. check comparable and things liek that. we came up with this design a year ago and we sold 10 if you want to talk further please DM me happy to connect. there are some great build to rent conferences. we went vertical not horizontal with it to save on build costs and design to fit on any infill lot. this fits on a 3500 square foot lot. most lots in our area are 30x120 or 30x150. in miami where I live now they are 50x100 or so. but any infill lot we can pretty much get this one on. there are some great build to rent conferences coming up too that if you like this topic I'd recommend attending I'm sure you'd learn a lot.  

Typically people making the designation a private lender is someone you know and have a relationship with and will privately lend you the money.

So you would either need to learn a lot about how to be an awesome STR operator and you would probably need to put into your home $20,000 to $100,000 in adding furnishings, design, and adding amenities to make the property desirable.

FHA loans are designed for primary residences and require the borrower to be an individual, not a business entity.

In Architecture you would take Structures, Electrical, Plumbing, HVAC, a variety of Design classes, Art History, etc...Saying someone should not do a Mentorship program because the program and strategies taught might not work for them is true, only if they take one program.
