It was the worst house in the best location. 5 acres just above a lake outside of a desired town.

Happy to discuss this further on what might make the most sense for your end goal.If you are renting right now and starting your path in real estate investing, as said above, I really do like the house hacking strategy for your situation.

I mentioned buyers brokers not showing houses to their clients because they thought the commission split was too low.

I rebuilt a house in the area a decade or so ago that had cracks in the walls that I later discovered had a 6 foot diameter bee hive in it.

Purchase price: $3,636,000 Cash invested: $700,000 This is a brand new 40 home build to rent manufactured housing community.

You want to have your financial house in order so you know what you CAN afford and what you SHOULD spend.

Maybe just try that and explain that you need some credible house to tie them to.

2 years to build a house is crazy.

Is it like you sold your house and don’t have to pay for the profit?

There are definitely risks that will be completely outside of the auction house.
