Better to get what you can, than to lose it all.

Quote from @Devin James: Quote from @Dominic Mazzarella: Quote from @Devin James: Everything went wrong with this investment:   - Took 4 months longer than expected   - Cost $10K more to build than we anticipated   - Sold for $20K less than we anticipatedWe still profited with a 30% return on equityThis is why I love Real Estate InvestingWhen you do your diligence and stay conservative with your numbers, it takes something really bad to lose money.Here was the original post:My siblings and I are building a home in North Port, FL.Here are the numbers: - Finished Home Value: $412Kish - Land Cost: $19,750.39 - Construction & Permitting Costs: $304,897Additional costs: - Environmental Site Assessment - General Liability Insurance - Builders Risk Insurance - Construction FinancingWe will be listing the home this weekPhotos coming soon!! 

Also, for people who wish to pursue larger real estate ventures, you don't personally need to be able to analyze a deal, and can possibly partner with someone who does or even hire an underwriter.

I’m also open to exploring short-term rentals, private lending, or passive investing in funds—anything that maximizes returns while keeping risk and time commitments manageable.For context, I’d consider leaving my job if this could become a full-time venture that surpasses my current compensation (low-mid six figures).

@Andria Kobylinski congrats on your venture into hospitality!

Matt Scott, Incite Venture Capital and his team can be summarized as follows: over priced, non responsive, non professional agreement breaking, chip on their shoulder and otherwise a bad investment.

Quote from @Sri Reddy: We are a team who are venturing in to constructing a multifamily unit from groundup.We don't have any prior experience in construction and are looking for financing loan options.

There is still a risk: You do not have the right outprice and lose money, your deal goes south due to unfound things when you bought it, then the rehab phase brings them up, and you spend more, and the market changes, which is something that can happen on a moment's notice.

For your next step, you might want to look into seller carry arrangements and joint ventures.

Is using a self-direct IRA to fund this venture a way to defer taxes until retirement ?
