.: Wild idea based on a property in my local market.

Now I spend my time making sure new investors entering the market do not make the same mistakes my wife and I made. 

Especially in a market where 95% of the buyers, and 99% of the highest offers come from owner occupants.

The Long Island market depends on your goals.

As far as which market, I'll leave that to realtors and investors in Florida.

An ADU could rent for an additional $1,200–$2,000/month, depending on the local market, potentially doubling the property's cash flow.

The Birmingham market has been showing steady growth, with increasing demand for both single-family homes and multi-family properties.

Lexington is a weird market with low occupancy, 90-92%, and there aren't many assets in the market.

What we found was only one other person contracted under $200 per square foot for clients and they also built within the city of columbus. the numbers have a much higher premium the closer you get to downtown. if you can't get the numbers to work my recommendation would be to get closer to downtown. we do build to rent development and single family home development and every line item is broken out. on the triples we have to build exterior staircases etc there are some things you can't really understand unless you build a lot. hope that helps but no one is going to build you for 110 a square foot. the lowest cost homes in our market at cost without a profit barely dip into 140 a square and we are in one of the cheapest construction markets and states in the country. 

Hi Joesph, It’s awesome that you took the leap into fix-and-flips and already have your first deal hitting the market soon—huge milestone!
