Build a strong team, prioritize cash flow, and take the time to understand the local market and regulations, especially for development projects.

That’s less about the numbers and more about developing a niche and understanding your product.

I use a spreadsheet I developed to determine my entry costs, carrying costs, cash flow, tax write offs, appreciation and exit costs.

How many units are generally in a townhome development?

Software developer - "What things do you look for in a CRM?"

Single family or multifamily, flips or rentals, new developments in light areas or infill lots?

It's our least developed beach.

Wonder what they charge developers to access their capital resources.   

There are many new developments going up but traffic in some areas are horrific, especially at peak. 

If the project is in Canada then I would look to an attorney that understands international law as it could be more complex.Personally for something along the lines of what you are doing I would look to partner with another developer vs trying to raise the capital as that will be less labor intensive.
