A new build needs to perform better than that to make it worth your time, all the risks and capital concentration.thanks for the advice everyone and would be happy to connect with you: @Bryant Brislin @Dave Wells @Leilah Davis @Joshua Stewart I have been building 15 to 20 spec houses a year now for 7 or 8 years..Just curious, generally from start to finish, from closing on buying the land to collecting a check after building the house and after escrow, how long is the process taking you?
