I'd recommend pushing density to 3 or 4 they all finance the same. we picked 3 because of the 35' height allowance in our area. here is a rendering to help paint the picture. our target appraisal value is 550k on the first few and pushing them to more than 600k as we sell some or keep them but if you are the only one building multifamily it's important to highlight the importance of appraisal and selling or disposing of some assets to create comparable to be used. our market has very little 2-4 units built because of economies of scale we are the only builder doing this style and we control the full process and it is a high barrier to entry where we are at. we are able to build at a lower cost now than almost buying a duplex because they are so small. each one is 668 sq ft total of 2004 sq ft. 

But owning managing and leasing commercial space should not be taken lightly and you should get as big a picture as you can. 

It could be worth considering a shot at an actual software solution built for DIY landlords (1 - 15 units); one that helps you to automate your own rental process (ie. compared to other tools, one that helps you to actually get it listed on 10+ major listing sites, allows you to schedule showings, provides you with super thorough tenant screening options, online digital leases which can be customized and help you by breaking out those fees, automated maintenance tracking, and fast rent collection which also offers your tenants the ability to report their positive on-time payments to the major credit bureaus; just another positive reinforcement/added incentive to get them to make those payments on time).

Detroit is known as the highest rent to price ratio in the country…and we’ve found the perfect balance of price/location within the area.Here is a picture of my portfolio...

I recently came across Saskatoon Cabinets and was impressed by their kitchen cabinet renovations and they do custom cabinets as well.

It's quite funny when you call them out on their BS scare tactics in front of their customers. 

Are you closer to or farther from the customer base? 

Then our students were having a crazy hard time with the current leading website provider and I had to come in and fix a bunch of crap that was wrong with said internet hosting and template provider so much so that they stopped offering our students support due to "custom code" on our websites.So I said fine.

Pretty much all the lower end non custom stuff is from there, but they are stained/painted and assembled in the USA.

Save some money on the down payment so you can put more down on other investment properties.I will tell you the same thing I tell all of my customers, If you cannot find a 2-4 unit or investment properties that will cash flow out of the gate - Look at other states.
