All the best to you during your last semester.Househacking is one of the most common routes for new investors in NY.For best returns, I'd recommend focusing on South and Southeast Queens, Central and Southeast Brooklyn, and the Bronx.There are parts of the suburbs (Westchester and Long Island) that have househack opportunities but the property taxes are higher and the commute time to NYC is longer.Abel

Appreciate the feedback. 

I ran into these gugys personally coming out of the GFC were money was really tough to raise..

If you are the property owner, you can manage your own properties without the license.

Be certain that the municipality does not have restrictions, not just the HOA. 

We took about 14 months to close this deal and the seller was very generous on keeping the price low.

The “winning” bid will almost always start at the mortgage balance.

I have a unique deal that the property owner is just wanting the builder to build him a home for "free" and he will sign over the land.

Furthermore, how important will be to have one of our team members providing oversight of the development process and what level of oversight is needed if the first option is selected.

My partner and I bought a home in South Florida end of 2021 with the intent of doing a small Reno and then airbnb/vrbo and then blocking out the dates we wanted to use the property.
