Your background as a licensed architect with experience in commercial and residential projects is an incredible asset, especially here where so many members are navigating construction, renovations, and design challenges.Out of curiosity, have you worked on any projects that were particularly challenging or rewarding?

@Carrie Young Excellent analysis.

Have also done work in DC and Maryland and would say Virginia has significant benefits over DC and Maryland because it is more business friendly and jurisdictions are willing to work with not against developers on projects I mentioned as well as you mentioned With the federal government and government contractors not going away - area is great for investment.

Looking to get into flipping projects preferably in the western suburbs

Yes, I know Vanguard’s recent-ish medium term projection for Large Cap Blend is 3-5%, but please; I don’t want to lose, in the weeds, this narrative momentum I’ve worked so hard for.

It's great that you give some info on your project.  

If you plan on doing a lot of value-added projects.

I'd start by seeing what pieces you already have lined up for building the project. 1.

I am in Milwaukee, very hot rental market.Whenever you have an issue like this, think with an XLS and project dollars, for example:- 2 months lost rent: 2 x $2000- 5% lower purchase price: $15,000
