We prioritizes keeping waste out of landfills but its necessary part of the job many times.We also have a pretty active and informative youtube channel @greenbuildingnetwork and on instagram @phillygreenbuilding if you'd like to connect with us thereAt the time of writing this we're rehabbing the mixed use space in a Philly suburb on the Main Line for ours portfolio, rehabbing a single family home in the Rittenhouse area of Philly for a client, and acquiring a 30 acre plot of land with a barn and single family structure in upstate New York as part of our portfolio.Right now we are a finely tuned machine but we see opportunity!

I mainly am curious how people have raised capital for their first properties. 

I mainly bought it for the land, do not intend to rent it out for cash flow or what not.It is currently occupied by the previous owner.

Since you have built a lot of them, could you spare 15 min to share your perspective on the main pain points of land discovery?

For context its mainly retirement communities around 2 hours either way from Las Vegas and Phoenix.

Principal balance currently at 314kProperty Details: It's essentially a "2-in-1" property, with the main unit rented out for $1,900/month and an attached ADU bringing in an additional $1,200/month.

Mainly the "self sufficiency test". 

I currently live in San Diego, Ca. but have been looking in the midwest, mainly Iowa, Indiana and Ohio, for properties. 

My main goal is to find something relatively close to the DMV area but without the DMV price tag.

I mainly want to ask if these assumptions are reasonable and if there's anything I haven't considered:(1) multifamily units in NJ close to New York City, ~$1,000,000, 20% down payment, (2) Using the following assumptions: 4% appreciation rate, 6.5% interest rate and 5.0% refinance after 5 years, $10,000 yearly maintenance fee(3) ~$6,000 monthly rental and assume 3% increase yearly with 5% vacancy rate(4) Based on the above, the calculated IRR if selling at the 10th year is ~19% (considering tax benefits) and ~17% (without tax benefits).
