So the developers have performed some interesting magic- they’ve sold condos to people who cannot hope to profit on the cash flow.

I do have one house hacking client where I sold his condo and then helped him buy a larger townhouse where he can do forced appreciation through rehab (which worked out really well.)I went from a house hacking condo, used a HELOC and then did the FHA 203(k) to a house and built an ADU.Because of the rental restrictions, it might make sense to sell at some point since profits up to $250K is tax free and scale up that way. 

This will allow me to have better deals and can profit on the work as a contractor.Are their any clause which prevent this?

Here’s the plan I’ve come up with, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on its feasibility, potential risks, and any improvements you might suggest.The Plan1.Pay Off Mortgage: I currently have $170K left on my mortgage, and my goal is to aggressively pay it off in the next 1.5 years.2.Establish Emergency Fund: Before making any big moves, I’ll set aside 6-12 months’ worth of expenses as an emergency fund.3.Extract Equity: Once the mortgage is paid off, I’ll pull out the equity from the property.4.First Flip: Using the extracted equity, I’ll purchase another house, fix it up, and sell it for a profit.5.Reinvest Flip Profits: Instead of buying another property immediately, I’ll use the profits from the flip to renovate the original property, aiming to increase its rental income and appraisal value.6.Reappraise and Extract Equity Again: After renovating, I’ll get the original property reappraised and extract additional equity based on its increased value.7.Purchase Rental Properties: With the additional equity, I’ll start purchasing rental properties that offer positive cash flow and have growth potential.8.Leverage Equity Strategically: I’ll use equity from the original property and any new properties while maintaining a healthy loan-to-value ratio (LTV), ideally around 70-75%.9.Build Rental Portfolio: I’ll focus on acquiring a mix of property types (e.g., single-family homes, multi-family units) to diversify my investments.10.Focus on Cash Flow: I’ll prioritize properties that generate consistent positive cash flow, ensuring that rental income covers all expenses, including mortgage payments, maintenance, and management fees.11.Long-Term Hold: I’ll hold properties long-term to benefit from appreciation and tax advantages.

So, this created a few issues along the way and ultimately a loss of potential profit.

Sold for a significant profit, paid off mortgage, HELOC, and solar loan, made over $100k.

A percentage of every builds profit upon selling?

In most cases there is very little fix and flip profits as a long term benefit. 

Plus, regulations change and businesses move and staffing needs ebb and flow, I want to remain profitable in the worst case scenario. 

Using the 50% rule (taxes, insurance, Capex, maintenance, vacancies, property-management), that should give us ~19K/month in pre-tax profits that achieves our 10k/month financial goal after-tax and adjusting for inflation.Our assumption is that building new-construction would reduce capex & maintenance the first few years.
