The challenge was finding a GC that had good communication and understood ROI for every dollar he charged us.

If you don't live in puerto rico its not a good idea to invest.

RE was a good spring board for me while my career outside RE was ratcheting up. 

Good job on getting started. 

I had a good relationship with the listing agent and was able to structure a below value deal (beating out iBuyers and other investor offers).

That's good to know.

Every property is sold one-on-one, where we provide investors with the information they need to make a good decision. 

Anyone know any good books on acquisitions when it comes to real estate?

We built a single family home version of a 2 bed 1 bath with surface parking at cost with no profit all in with land for 175k in newark ohio, a suburb of columbus ohio. when we push that to 3 units and closer to the city for our build to rent model the numbers go way better. a 30k slab for a single family home is 30k, a 30k slab for a triplex is 10k a door. we designed a 2 bed 1 bath design at 668 sq ft and it's very good layout even I would live there, but I would never build anything that small again. there's no economies of scale. you need density and shared lines, resources, shared roof shared slab, shared windows, etc the cost goes way down.

Travis made some really good/valid points.
