To learn more about which one may be best for you, feel free to send me a private message.Old Town North: An Unused Eye Soar Transforming into a 2.5 Million Square Foot Community CenterThe GenOn coal power plant, which opened in 1949 and was shut down in 2012 due to concerns by residents about local pollution, has occupied an unused 20-acre lot in Old Town North for the last 12 years.

We believe that with the right partnership, this project can still achieve great success.Thank you. its tough to build new in markets were existing properties are selling for far less than new construction per foot..

I have an opportunity on a 12 unit property but being in SoCal and never setting foot in MS I wanted to ask around 

I went on Zillow and found this 1900 square foot house with 2 bed, 1 bath and a nice floorplan in the listing.

@Pearse CafieroWhen starting out with your first rental property in Los Angeles, I’d recommend exploring FHA loans or private lending options to get your foot in the door.

They may require a foundation (footings) of some sort, a different home set up, among other things.

Engineer didn't note if there were frost free footings.  

Well Giacomo, Sometimes you are the football and sometimes you are the foot.

This rule is good for the 30,000 foot view of running numbers on deals so you do not get bogged out with running those numbers on every single deal for example..

If it was me...I'd check with zoning to find out how many dwelling units I could build, and I'd find what the requirements are for those units (type of house, height and setback restrictions, etc.).Then I'd find out what local builders think the cost to construct would be - just get a cost estimate per square foot for 2 or 3 different levels of finish.
