As a real estate investor, I’ve learned the hard way about the mistakes that can cost time and deals.

we can do it not rented but rate will be significantly higher. easier and more cost effective to rent it. unless the bridge money needs to be paid back asap or you need the funds back to buy more, then a cost analysis needs to be done. personally id get it rented at market rent or a touch below if time is a factor. 

Your total project cost is only ~ $143k. 3c) Your interest rate is probably going to be in the low to mid 7s, at least4) All states/areas are different, but I usually see with my CFO clients that their property taxes are higher than their insurance, with taxes often 1.5x higher than insurance.5) Lastly, I saw PM fee of 8%, are you paying someone else to manage this?

Cost efficiency while enhancing the design and functionality of the property What was the outcome?

The land is on two tax lots so my plan is to sell the extra lot immediately after closing for a projected $275K.The property on the other lot will be a fix and flip with projected costs of $240K and an ARV of $750K.I plan to use a PML of 2 points and 12% APY for 70% of the total cost.

We net 10s of thousands of people from the Midwest states as well. 

There's no real hard and fast way or only 1 way or doing your first 2 points. your subject line suggests you're not looking to go to a large shop like a JLL or a CBRE which honestly I don't blame you those offices are usually pretty bloated.As far as monthly costs, if you are going to individually get a costar or other such license you are probably looking at $500-$1000 a month pretty easy in overhead once you have office dues, mls dues, marketing, etc. 

Over time, cost of insurance, monthly charges, and surrender fees (which can last 10+ years) reduce how quickly your cash value grows.3.Policy Loan Costs & PerformanceYou’ll still pay interest when borrowing against your policy.

If you treat this like a hobby, it will eventually cost you a lot more than you want to pay.

Also, I found 2 ideologies regarding such development projects: Use one GC for the entire development or use that GC only for crucial trades such as foundation, framing, roofing , external siding, etc. and use sub contractors for finish and interior work to reduce cost.
