We're doing a ground-up construction project in a booming spot on the Pacific Coast of Mexico.

You don't have to have water & sewer lines in the ground to approach a homebuilder company but you will have to have lots and layout drawn to get any type of commitment.

I'm struggling to generate extra lead flow from builders, mostly because it's so difficult to identify folks that are doing ground up, business purpose construction. 

Hey @Craig SparlingLove seeing someone approach real estate like Benjamin Graham or Warren Buffett might tackle stocks... methodical, data-driven, and grounded in fundamentals.

They’ll be your eyes and ears on the ground.- Focus on Landlord-Friendly States: Oklahoma is a great example, with straightforward eviction processes and laws protecting property owners.- Stick to B and C+ Areas: These neighborhoods balance affordability and tenant quality, minimizing risk.- Analyze Properties Remotely: Use tools like BiggerPockets calculators to evaluate deals.

Moreover, "[v]olitional unwillingness, as distinguished from good faith inability, to meet contractual obligations furnishes neither a ground for cancellation of the contract nor a defense against its specific performance" (Meisels v 1295 Union Equities Corp., 306 AD2d 144, 145 [2003]).  

Curious about the on-the-ground experience.

You will be competing with people who have 'boots on the ground' and can visit any property owner with short notice.While wholesaling from afar is possible, it is recommended to begin closer to home.

While it appears many rookie investors tend to struggle to hit the ground running due to lack of capital / financing, I have the opposite problem.

My partners and I (3 of us) are based in Miami FL (not the easiest market at the moment) we are all realtors / brokers and investors, each have 20+ years of experience down here, have done multiple ground up single Family and duplex builds and currently have a portfolio of single fam and duplex properties.
