For instance, as a flipper if I wanted 40-45% profit margin then I do the calculations at the star of underwriting to see it the deal makes sense.

@Stone Jin, selling to an unrelated party in a 1031 is fine in many instances. 

For instance, by nature, most (though certainly not all) QOZ funds will be investing in "up and coming" areas, wheres there are no geographical constraints to a traditional 1031 investments. 

But this is a co-op, and titles are not used in this instance as far as I understand it.   

For instance, if you are looking for an owner occupied multi family find an agent that has gone through the process with a client and been through the different aspects that are unique to buying that kind of property.

For instance, NYC multi family will definitely not cash flow positive with 10% down unless you bought it dirt cheap which rarely happens.

For instance, if you paid all cash for an apartment building and you received a 7 cap, but you could buy an industrial building all cash and receive an 8 cap, then you would in theory rather purchase the industrial building.

The "High Times" magazine advertises some sort of "pre-scheduled" security on the radio, I don't know the name of it.

It seems like I read something every year about Colorado Springs being voted best place to live by some magazine. 

@Jon Klaus  Jon as we know this is all regional I am always amazed at how cost effective your builds are in Texas I have a 2.2 mil spec going in Charleston 2600 sq ftt and that's going to come out at 300 a foot. not including the lot of course.. which was 570k. in this instance no pilings but we did elevator 20k .. what does it in the historic district of Charleston is all the custom items you have to buy siding roof windows architecture 60k in hard scape landsape on a 4k sq ft lot.. that type of thing. when we are out of the BAR heavy duty areas we are building at 100 a foot or so..
