Thank you for helping to foster an excellent investing forum environment!

Having trouble analyzing this deal as there are so many variables and I do not have the experiencing analyzing deals to make me feel comfortable taking the risk.Purchase price of the land would be $250,000 not including closing cost or fees, and construction for a new 3/2 home with an attached 1/1 ADU is estimated to cost around $300,000 - $400,000 finished.

Turns out it is just a bad time with the current economic environment, I will try again down the road!

For further context, the borrower would be able to comfortably afford the mortgage with the rental income but not without it completely.I understand that potential rental income from the property may be considered for a loan amount, but I’m not sure how potential income affects the liquid amount that lenders want to see when issuing a loan.

Or course there is always a deal out there and people can still be successful in this environment but the days of finding a property on mls and having it turn to gold are over.

Need a Co. very comfortable with assignments.

As such, we decided to include a fairly large island which can comfortably seat 10 people.

After you are comfortable becoming a landlord or renovating/hiring contractors, moving on to a BRRRR, fix and flip, value add apt complex, etc... may be your next step.

This approach allows you to create a comfortable atmosphere for future discussions.

Tax wise no, the actual return is higher than 3% but if you're comfortable locking up funds for 6 months, 5% doesn't look terrible to me.
