Lots of research first through Zillow , real estate agent, and family members led us to Queen Creek and New home constructions.

I work for a portfolio lender as their point person for construction loans, and now I'm trying to grow the division.

Any constructive advice would be much appreciated. 

I'm a realtor, investor and own a construction company located in College Station, Tx.

Or the house construction industry in general where they build for $X and sell for $X+margin?

A report from Apartments.com shows that 178,000 newly constructed units entered the market in Q3, bringing the projected year-end total to 636,000 units.

I have 2 options:- finance the construction pre-selling the apt, and take my profits (expected to be around 700K pre-tax); or- finance the construction with a 6-7%/year loan (collateral = my house), keep the 10 units, and once the building is completed in 24 months, rent them for circa 180K/ year gross.

So how are you going to convince an investor, presumably an American, to invest in a foreign country where he/she presumably has no experience rather than investing in his more profitable backyard.

Hi BP, As a newcomer to the real estate investment scene, I wanted to see if anyone had experience with Section 8 investments in Detroit.

Perfect - do your best to make the floors as even as new construction.
