Procrastination will only cost them more. yep. carrying costs alone, but also if its not your money and investor money - some will try and drag it out. 

A post on recapture.People are concerned about recapture when they cost segregate their improvements and for good reason.Recapture is real, and those deferred taxes will need to be paid.But fear not!

Would it generally be a location that tends to have a higher cost of living? 

It has been my life's mission to build my own duplex, house hack it & use it to catalyze the BRRR cycle.As I get closer to breaking ground on the project, I'm still not 100% confident in it's feasibility due to the costs of land & construction considering it is mandatory to secure an appraisal 20% above build & land cost. 

It has good integration, is cost effective, and the direct booking feature is pretty good!

Never built in Houston before so take my feedback with a grain of salt but I'd put money on it being impossible to build a duplex from scratch for $125 a foot (including everything from drawings, engineering, permit fees, general conditions, labor, material, landscaping).Out here in AZ the builder cost is going to be $200 a foot at best, but add 20% on top of that for the client cost.

This means we have to get creative with the design: lower-cost tiles, white shaker cabinetry, and sometimes carpet in the bedrooms and basement. 

It comes down to the most effective use of a marketing budget.

To succeed, focus on properties in high-demand neighborhoods like Pecan Grove or Aliana, and ensure your cash flow analysis accounts for high property taxes, potential HOA restrictions, and flood insurance costs.

That is, how well did your deal analyzer estimates match the actual rehab costs, holding costs, ARV, and profit?
