@Nithin ThampiBuilding-to-Rent (BTR) communities are newly built neighborhoods designed for rental purposes, offering shared amenities, low maintenance, and attractive properties.

I don’t know of anyone personally who put the effort into getting the money back guarantee because it’s designed to be an almost impossible process. 

But my primary focus is commercial property, I rarely engage in a residential property transaction, especially don’t  with a homeowner.

An Architect can look out for your best interest in the project plus can bring all the Engineers necessary for the build (Civil, Structural, MEP, Sprinkler/Fire suppression, etc.)As far as the build itself, if it's in an established city or town on a tax lot, then you'll need to go through the design and permitting process, gain zoning approval if necessary, and then build up from there.

Don't have them do the actual building designs. 

We’re probably the only designers and contractors who would say no—unless you’re in the luxury STR space.Why?

Personally I use Forefront, but its mostly designed for real estate leads.

While some say the handwritten look adds a certain authenticity, a well-designed sign with a clean logo could attract a different segment of sellers who may prefer dealing with someone who presents themselves professionally.

Disney themed rooms go a long, working with an interior designer will help a lot.
