The is fear among the industry the EPA could come in and force you to shut the lagoon down.

And , since I had been working in an industry I really wasn’t passionate about, this was my chance to try an industry that I have had a passion for for the last 12 years or so.

I am looking to connect with people in the industry who are proactive and looking for their next project.

@Carlos C.Mark Kohler is well respected in the industry.

That has become nearly an industry standard in the lending space. 

Other commercial and industrial is fine.  

I bring to the table my full expertise in project management, construction, and deal sourcing, along with the knowledge I’ve gained working tirelessly in this industry over the past 3 years.My vision is to dedicate the next 10-15 years to real estate development, growing projects that generate significant returns while delivering exceptional results.If you’re interested in learning more, I’d love to discuss how we can collaborate.

Or the house construction industry in general where they build for $X and sell for $X+margin?

This is where I'm very inexperinced and don't understand what is standard for industry or what could potentially bite me down the road.

Though I would caution you on hard money lending until you understand the industry a bit better, that can be very rewarding but you have to be able to do your due diligence on deals because you're turning over your hard-earned money to an individuals project, often a flip.
