If it was built after June 15, 1976, it is a manufactured home and is built to the construction standards that HUD, Housing and Urban Development, set at that time.

Your realtor should be the backbone of your business and be able to help with sending you personalized deal flow, building the rest of your real estate team (PMs, GCs, lenders, etc), showing you the good/bad neighborhoods, developing scope of work and estimating renovations, and so much more!

Quote from @William Dorrough: I currently either purchase and value add large scale multifamily properties or develop, and build ground up my issue with scaling is we have done this without brining in investors i have a great deal flow with a good track record im really looking to do more i have the capacity but have the need for more capital in one way or another  Scaling without investors can be tough, especially in multifamily.

You just need the right plan and the right people in your corner.A little background on me—I’m a real estate broker, investor, and developer out of Rochester, NY.

I saw once where a developer gave the buyer a pass on paying HOA fees till a house was built on a lot. 

And unfortunately that's very true with many professionals; after those early years of learning they stop growing, learning, developing, become set in their ways, etc. 

In terms of development and flipping my friend does a lot of this and does good in the million dollar range but he uses OPM for these larger projects.

funding land flippers as a capital partner is my latest thing.. since finding lenders for land is very difficult. continue to fund small developers soft costs for % ownership.and continue to be capital partner for flippers and BRRR folks

The biggest hurdle I see with arbitrage is developing a pitch to use when approaching landlords, which you can probably do with a little research on BP and ChatGPT.

if you look at forced appreciation you can do that as a strategy but you are still limited by market supply, market economics, property ages you can't control. the strategy we do Is build to rent development where you build an asset 25% below market through infill site selection, land entitlement which boosts property values, as well as refinance once the property is stabilized. new construction you can't build something unless it appraises 25% below market anyways. so I think the majority of biggerpockets is focused on the strategy you mentioned but part of what I try to do is show other strategies that involve land, new construction, build to rent development, land development, land entitlements, smart asset design of smaller floor plates, infill locations where equity and values are higher, etc. we do this in Columbus Ohio.
