It’s sort of one of those things you learn as you go unless you’re willing to learn and teach yourself or meet with an expert on, to learn about taxes and protecting your asset, etc.

those numbers don't work if you need design help I'd rework the Floorplans to smaller and higher rents to lower construction costs. 2.1 million for 12 units is crazy. we build at about 100k per door hard cost. suburban walk up style apartments fully leased up with land go for $155k a door over 100 units in columbus ohio. so if you work backwards take the equity and land out our pricing is right in line for build cost and that's with profit to investors.

Here's how we teach it:1.

It's hard feeling like I need a mentor but also wanting to be respectful of peoples' time and not ask too much of them to teach me, so I'm trying to do as much as I can on my own first. 

In person learning can be great if that's your preferred learning style, but there are many online programs that will give you an abundance of information and the flexibility to go through the content at your own pace.

Experience teaches you quickly to stay away from cheap materials.

What is the happy medium of price, durability, and style.

I want to understand the demand for various locations and home styles. 

(It's more expensive) Or just ask them to get something close to they style and send me a picture before replacing. 

@Tom Owiti hi I teach a class series for the Miami Association of Realtors on how to better work with housing authorities.It’s a great option and can be used almost on any property as long as the association bylaws don’t have any restrictions that would prevent this specific tenant from qualifying.
