I think it's less of an issue of which is better and more of what are you comfortable with?

Would you all feel comfortable or is it safe to have a mortgage on the property if the value is just the land at the beginning of the build?

Thanks.Go to meetups, as many as possible and network with other investors so you get comfortable and make some good connections.

Yes, I feel I am in a bit cleaner environment that Jackson but I too have heavily considered to sell everything.

Tell them that you'd like to call through their oldest, worst leads to get comfortable talking with people - can I help with appointment setting?

Get out of your comfort zone.

And when the music stops it’s usually crickets, as many LPs are embarrassed to admit the losses and the syndicators prefer a hush hush environment (which is why some LPs don’t want to name them.)Personally I have always found syndications too risky, especially given that I have zero control, other than reading their disclosures and trusting in their accuracy.

In the present mortgage environment it appears that super jumbo mortgage lenders have preference towards a perceived 'stronger' loan. 

Get out of your comfort zone.

This beautiful residence is perfect for those seeking comfort, convenience, and a peaceful living environment.
