The convenience and luxury of living alone is worth it to some for the benefits.

I feel if a person doesn't have the time or desire to get on a plane to look at something they are dumping hundreds of thousands of dollars in, they probably are not that suited for this business.

You will be forced to solve problems and get scrappy which will carry through all the next phases.Then, I would see if I could possibly start with an addition, garage build or other small and simple structure for your first ground up -- I started with a 250 sqft master suite addition.

Every one of the owners he is under contract with will tell you to run from this builder (law suits in the works).  

I get the frustrations of laundry and especially losing expensive luxury linens that gain 5-star reviews and very happy guests.

If the above sound harsh and distrustful … the game is rigged… this is for YOUR protection… many agents will claim that this is against their broker policy… so was “ negotiating the agent fees”… until a class action law suit determined that the big Real Estate Agent Brokers were running a monopoly and acting in collusion to fix fees.I just got “fired” by my agent for asking for a financial disclosure .. so that I could see the relationship between the agent, the seller and the funding source…. … it turns out that EXACTLY what I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT…. was exactly…what was .. going on….

This has become increasingly popular after the suit settled 2024 with the National Association of Realtors regarding commissions and client representation.see article:  https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/15/economy/nar-realtor-commissio...Good luck!

They were never particularly nice, beach cabins on stilts with rattan furniture that usually had water stains from wet suits.  

Invest with syndicators who have a narrow niche and proven track record.For example, if an operator has done 5 or 6 workforce housing value add deals in Dallas, and they are offering a similar deal now, that would be encouraging.if however, their current deal was a brand new luxury Class A building in Charlotte and this was their first acquisition in Charlotte and their first class A deal, as an LP I would pass.Find operators who do one thing and kill it in that space.Find operators who own or have gone full cycle with similar assets in the same market.For example, my firm, Spark Investment Group has a very narrow niche - sub 100 unit MF or BTR in Greenville SC.

Use sheet vinyl or luxury vinyl tilePlease don’t use snap together laminate or carpet.
