Early this year I fired all of them on the same day because I was doing the majority of the work, the didn't take training and coaching well, and the main thing was that their CAPACITY was tiny.

Luckily for me most of the main horizontal lines are in the ceiling of the basement unit so I am gonna go ahead and change all of them and I feel confident it’ll be a good decision.

We'll still look at a multifmaily deal here and there, particularly if there's a retail component, but not currently our main focus.

LLC is mainly about liability protection.

I would mainly be finding deals for the investor, and taking a percentage of the purchase price as my fee.

On a the main st, mine is on a dead end with only one house past mine.

The main thing to me has always been to respond honestly, try to avoid being negative or (worse) calling the customer names, and similar.

Construction can have unforseen costs, construction loans for rounds of funding can be more expensive over time, rent markets can drop, vacancies in market can increase.Typically entitlement phase of land most risk, followed by development, followed by vacant building turn around, followed by half vacant building, followed by mainly full building with value add component, followed by brand new building with market or below in place rents and everything new with good location.Along that spectrum of course you go from heavy equity upside potential to mainly just the cash flow return and hopefully price appreciation over time.Investors have to decide on the spectrum of their risk assessment to capital over what period of time how they will allocate between all one type of investment or multiple and what percentages.

I want to increase my personal income to help fund a second rental, but my career limits me mainly to remote jobs and gigs.I’m curious if there are any other investors out there that started with a similar skill set to mine, and what other skills they developed to help increase their W2 income and to help build their real estate knowledge and experience? 

How are we going to afford buying the house, back to your main point?
