@Ross SibIt appears that the deal you're currently exploring is starting to cut it close after updating your numbers.To answer your question: It would depend upon the city you're looking to build in, as well as the style & finishes ( San Clemente for instance, requires a Spanish Colonial build-out for all buildings), but I can connect you with a few architects & developers down here during the week if you'd like to explore your options and get an estimated price range.

The area l live in Spanish Fort, Mobile Ala is one of the fastest growing economies in the country currently and houses are moving.

Property specs: 920 sqft, 3 beds, 1 bath, year 1960Needs: new floors (currently Spanish Tile 12x12), full bath remodel (last updated 12 years ago, all white subway 4x6 tile), needs new roof, needs landscapingThe kitchen is about 7 years old (cherry wood cabs, black/white marble countertops), A/C 2 years old

I seem to be pretty good at foreign languages(Spanish, Russian, English, Ukranian, German) which is how I turned out to be very useful here in Málaga.

I’m thinking about Philly because of synergies (family and friends nearby) as well as the NYC/Philly price hypothesis.

I wanted to get a referral for a tax/finance professional in El Paso, TX who speaks Spanish.

The only data point is 1918 with the Spanish flu.

I’m bilingual as well Spanish/ English so I’m OPEN TO EVERYTHING HAHAHA.

Bonus if it can be turned into an educational how-to guide.The resident can either pay out of pocket for any work needing to be done, or they can let the GNA cover it in exchange for direct principal payments off the original market price purchase.Make a simple guide to what needs to be done on a regular basis, and establish a plan for what the resident can handle, vs what the GNA provides.Create synergy with kids and grandkids to accomplish common/ regular tasks.Opportunity for daycare/ day camp, or even homeschool type services.Opportunity for future continued business partners to take over living on the residence.Preferred scenario, resident pays for material and professional labor, and the GNA provides cheaper labor for easy tasks etc.Residents may pay part of the labor cost, but ideally if the GNA has cash to pay internal employees, then those costs get applied as principal payments.Explore options that let GNA employees trade time for ownership of that specific property, instead of traditional pay, or use it as an overtime bonus.Find ways to incorporate local artists and craftsmen, and make unique projects that incorporate the story of the house as told by the resident.

I've been analyzing listings in the UT county area, from Lehi to Spanish Fork.
