Therefore Bill & Jane's vacation house in the Hamptoms or the ABC Company tenant 10,000 SF commercial build out is ahead of your development.Robert- If you do have the correct Architect for your project, then the problem is: they aren't incentivized to change anything.

Once you find that group find some folks you resonate with that are 2-3 steps ahead of you and figure out how to get there!

There's some who are more so there to help advise as I make my own path presumably with the ability to identify issues ahead of time.

I decided not to go ahead with the deal but alot of useful information has been offered by many of you.

Look at it as an opportunity to get ahead.

So I always try to plan ahead, triple check my due diligence, and be VERY conservative with my underwriting.

Thank you so much and Happy Holidays ahead as well.

First things first, remember it's a marathon, and you are getting such a head start that, in the long term, you will be leading the pack no matter your pace!

Just remember to always keep your client's interests ahead of your own, be transparent, and keep investing and moving forward! 

They're good to have open access to capital/cash/equity to a property ahead of time so you can execute a deal or purchase when the time comes on a split second decision (versus having to apply to a loan at that time which might take 20-45 days to get approved/closed/etc plus by that time you dont know what your future income/credit/assets will be like in order to qualify anyway).The second use is sleep at night factor and having a reserve of capital in the event an emergency event occurs in life.For these two reasons is why I use lines of credit.
