funding land flippers as a capital partner is my latest thing.. since finding lenders for land is very difficult. continue to fund small developers soft costs for % ownership.and continue to be capital partner for flippers and BRRR folks

If each property costs $200,000 and your only acquisition cost is a 25% down payment, you will need $850,000 (17 × $200,000 × 25%) in savings, an almost impossible amount for most people.

It's an opportunity cost, just like anything else.

That's your cost. 

At the end of the day; you need more money to do something like this.MAX LTV on new builds is 80% LTC, Meaning if the build is $550,000 and Land is XAdd ($550,000 + x ) * .8 = LOAN AMOUNTYou would need to come in with MINIMUM 20% of the cost in addition to closing costs and reserves, $80,000 is not going to cut it for this project.

This can often be cost-prohibitive. 

Building a 4,000-square-foot, three-story duplex with a 1,000-square-foot ADU could cost about $1.83 million, including construction and permits (excluding land).

Given that the property was worth $390K in its current condition, I saw an opportunity to make the numbers work while keeping my upfront costs low.Instead of increasing my cash offer, I negotiated a $25K down payment with the seller carrying the balance for two years through owner financing.

If you ever want to get into a tenant nightmare of costly potential litigation become a landlord, have the ac go out in Phoenix in July, and inform the tenant that you just don’t have the funds to replace it!.    

Having a vacancy costs money!
