As those prices fluctuate, there is a builders somewhere putting his feet up waiting to see a market turn more active because the last thing he wants to do is start paying crews to build houses, that could drop in value while he's halfway through the build process and losing equity halfway into the project.

Besides, it's always a good idea to build a good relationship with the Planning and Building departments. 

Just a update, i bought a new build SFH in Rancho Cordava for 560K and rented out for $2900.

With a 4-unit building, that’s a very high customer concentration.

Prefer keeping this kind of stuff behind closed doors if possible and sorting it out without revealing dirty laundry.I would have been in the same boat as many other turnkey providers that are no longer around if I didn't focus on limiting how much business I take on.And even with my stupidly strict criteria, we still copped the brunt of the sword.Business is business and people are people, sometimes things just don't work out.It's a true shame but such is life.I always want whats best for everyone and for every deal to work out and for everyone to succeed.With the best intentions, mistakes are still made.Those that work hard and do their best, will also make mistakes unfortunately.Again, I sleep in peace and whenever I F@#$ up, it's an honest mistake so crucify me all you want.Thank God, never been sued and back round is squeaky clean and I intend to keep it that way.Less is more and when crisis does arise (It always eventually does no matter how much you prepare and do your best), we can hopefully rectify and do our best to fix.For example, just had an investor loose $50,000 on a deal and the next few deals we are working for free for this investor.We don't have to do this, we want to...Not sure how we would be able to accommodate such an instance if I had 50+ investors loosing that much so I guess my stringent on-boarding criteria has saved our A$$ for 10+ years now.Granted, I'm burnt out on folks and have pulled back even more from doing our "measly" 4-5 turnkey deals per month and have decided to focus on just building my own portfolio.Like I initially intended when I moved to this country in 2012.Thanks mate and keep being great

I got my GC license a couple years ago so I could build houses myself as I was sick of dealing with contractors.I've hired plenty of contractors that were not licensed/insured and it went fine.

It sounds like you’ve got an exciting plan mapped out, and I love that you’re thinking of starting a property management business while building your own portfolio—that’s a smart move.
