For me it’s building connections with buyers in a new market. 

Building a Consistent Pipeline of Distressed DealsOne of the significant challenges in scaling your operations is ensuring you have a steady stream of promising distressed properties.

Have they started building yet? 

There are really great REI opportunities in different markets - markets in the Midwest and Southeast of the country are particularly lucrative - where not only are the purchase prices reasonable for most RE investors, but the homes are turnkey (new builds or completely rehabbed homes, tenant ready, systems 10 years of life remaining on them, property management teams in place) with appreciating home value AND appreciating rent.

Quote from @David Cooper: Quote from @Lauren Sanford: Quote from @Jim Rice: Lauren, really just trying to put together a group that would what to meet up if possible and share education, information & build relationships.

It’s possible to start small, build experience, and scale over time.

Again, that is my opinion, and I'm sure others will claim they are truly turnkey.A turnkey operator finds or builds a property.

It's a wholesale deal close to downtown and I want to build a portfolio of duplexes for buy and holds because of the ROI.

Just want to mention that sometimes it works out better to raze an existing property down to like 2 studs and rebuild around it so that it still is classified as a remodel versus a complete new build. 

What rate, term and amount borrowed did you get for the ADU build and what was the cost?
