This includes having team members that specialize in each specific part of the process, spotting macro trends quicker, and buying consumables, furniture, and other services in bulk.

Each way has its good points and tough spots, so digging deeper and trying them out can show which fits your aims and likes best.

I'd focus on 150,000 sq ft and up deals so you get the densities you need. we just proposed 84 units on a lot that is 4500 square feet in Columbus Ohio with reduction in parking from 111 cars to 0 and we will lease off site parking. shift parking off site to save money on garages or push it into public garages. if the numbers work build structured parking which most the time they do it just depends on the deal size. if you want to sell to institutional investors you need at least 100 units in my opinion but the sweet spot is like 150+. in downtown columbus our market you can get about downtown unlimited height land for 1.5 million an acre.

Ohio markets show up 3 times in Zillow’s 2024 hottest markets, with Columbus and Cincinnati taking the top 2 and 3 spots.

Now our family plan is to buy on a golf course just outside of PV (we found our spot, just not the unit) which we will use as STR and several months personally each year.

@Ed Ma, I want to second @Nathan Gesner's advice here -- perhaps only sell if you are relatively confident in your landing spot being an improvement for you. 

When you post online about "unlimited funds" the sharks smell blood in the water.I will say that running out of state flips is VERY hard.

I have two deeded parking spots in the lot but owe 0% to the condo association that owns it through a stroke of luck.

I personally think there is a sweet spot of deals in the $2m - 8 or 9 mil range where institutional people shy away as it's not big enough and it weeds out a lot of other smaller investors.
