I work in commercial property development, but this would be my first time developing anything myself and developing anything residential.

Often not as much as retail centers with lots of property management but still takes work, knowledge, and skill.I have a whole process I have developed to assess risk.Hope it helps   

The main key to our success is proximity to several very large housing developments.

. - Hostfully(seems to be most cheap)- Uplisting(seems to be the most professional)- Hospitable(most friendly UI & the only one I currently have experience with)     Biggest con for me is lacking in ai for messaging which they've denied integrations with developers.

We meet at one of my development projects rather than a hotel.

I would LOVE to develop this land myself and sell a house, I simply don't have the capital. 

I’m particularly bullish on Columbus due to its significant economic growth and development, making it an attractive investment market.

Hi Derek, my recommendation is for you to look for areas with job growth and upcoming developments.

New developments happen because there's potential in the area a lot of times.

Not aware of how construction cost are looking in Milwaukee, but I'd talk to a couple of contractors/developers in the area.
