Quote from @Devin James: @Jay Hinrichs Developments are definitely BIG money makers, but thats also reflected with the risk associated.That's why these projects take so much time and capital, but if you make the right judgements for project selection, and do all your due diligence, it'll turn out well. my 90 home project in Oregon  started it as dirt before covid .. got 1st phase built then covid hit.. had to fight through lumber sky rocketing and other material shortages and the of course interest rate spikes.. but the project ( and I give credit to my Wife and my GC's attention to detail) has sold Very well for record prices and profits .. its de risked now 22 lots left 13 are presold with big non refundable deposits and only 9 lots left that have no debt..
