It's far easier to get repeat business from a prior customer than new business from a stranger.

This is going to sound sacrilege but I think you should get a W-2 job in real estate based on your end game of wanting to be a developer I would look to work for developers, custom builders, surveyors etc.

You need to contact the governing body that has jurisdiction over the zoning laws for either the incorporated or unincorporated of the county or city for the plot you are interested in building on.  

I have built around  20 homes in the past 2 years all with the exact home plan and  I been doing spec and custom homes my entire life.

If you don't do this, do you have a particular reason (such as you'd find out through a different part of your process that someone is scammy) or is it something you just never thought of incorporating into your screening?

What region of NY state are you in and who are your usual customers? 

These markets have been great for our customers.  

In the future I will probably add the card in addition to keeping the coin to cover all customer needs and provide better tracking of machine usage.

Several of my customers have recently closed on a few duplex/2 units in Maricopa.

I’ve had similar customer service problems with Steadily related to how they calculate the premium refund when the policy is canceled early.
