And to call yourself a developer, LMAO!

Out here in CA I'm always interested in seeing the cost differential between our vertically integrated developer clients, and a retail build-out developer clients.

It sounds like the project is getting a lot of pushback from locals but potentially worse than that is that the article says Shared Estates had until 9/1/2024 to raise the money for the development, but now they've altered the agreement to give the fund until end of 2025 to raise the money.A representative of the town is quoted in article as saying that after signing the agreement in January, Shared Estates examined it's finances and asked to have the agreement changed.So potentially the projects I invested in aren't doing well, or they're doing fine but funds from those projects are being diverted elsewhere.

I am considering buying an investment property in cash in a very nice development. 

Appraisal for post renovation is 5.5 million.1 million equity for one deal and around 9,000 per month in cash flow once stabilized is life changing to me, along with the cost segregation.You can make money in real estate in so many ways, whether you're @Jay Hinrichs funding deals and developing, or @Brian Burke syndicating, or wholesaling, buying single family homes, fixing and flipping, short term rentals, etc.The key is to pick you vehicle and master it.I would be remiss to say that I believe multifamily is the holy grail of real estate investing.

The macroeconomics here is rapidly growing - lots of population growth and job growth especially with the many companies moving and developing out here like Intel, Honda, Amazon, Google, Meta, etc.

Copper lines usually go bad from acidic water which lets the copper develop pinholes; occasionally you'll have solder joint failure.

I have a rental in a new rural development that does not have city garbage pickup.

Develop an offer strategy, work with a real estate agent, and include contingencies.
