OpportunitiesAffordability: Compared to many West Coast markets, Albuquerque properties often come at a more affordable price point, making it possible for investors to get started without a massive initial capital.Rental Demand: Due to the presence of UNM and other educational institutions, there's a consistent demand for rental properties, especially those close to campuses.Cultural Appeal: With its rich Native American and Hispanic heritage, Albuquerque offers cultural festivals, markets, and historical sites.

GC in my area cost 10% of the total and I would say that is worth it for what they provide, but if you have the knowledge and willingness to be on the phone with subs (and spend a lot of time on site) you could save that by DIYing it.

Some people are mentioning how they’ve been successful buying OOS site unseen.BUT, let’s keep in mind that that was a totally different market ago where almost everybody succeeded (low rates, incredible appreciation etc.) 

Platforms like BiggerPockets, local REI meetups, and Facebook groups can connect you with investors seeking opportunities.Joint Venture Partnerships: Consider partnering with a seasoned developer or investor who can provide the capital while you contribute your vision and operational effort.Hard Money Loans: If you’ve identified a property, some hard money lenders may fund the purchase and development based on the future value (ARV) of the project.Crowdfunding Platforms: Sites like Fundrise, Groundfloor, and RealtyMogul cater to real estate developments and could be a great way to gather capital.Seller Financing: If the land seller is open to it, negotiate terms to finance the purchase directly with them.2.
