In some cases, it's hard cost, in some cases soft cost or just inefficiencies.

Always recommend doing a soft-pull especially since not sure exactly when you'd find a property but you can get qualified and get some estimates.  

SIH builds in all of florida but their markets are pretty soft overall they are going where land costs can be supported.

Lastly funding developer who has 3 subdivisions going in WA DC market. these are big time deals and with our funds for the soft costs  500 k to 1 mil on each project my client is going to make  sit down  but probably over 10 million net  life changing money and well we will do good too !!

I thought best structure was maybe an SPV and put the land value into that and sell development equity and real tangible equity in land to generate cash for soft costs and we would cover that out of pocket. 

The market is soft now, but with the new administration, we are going to see a lot more jobs coming in.

funding land flippers as a capital partner is my latest thing.. since finding lenders for land is very difficult. continue to fund small developers soft costs for % ownership.and continue to be capital partner for flippers and BRRR folks

@Pratik as @Neil Narayan mentioned, cash flow is very challenging due to the property values, property taxes, and soft rental market.

Still, my soft heart left my head feeling pretty rough, like a "failure".I don't think with your experience and 17(!)

We have an app now in beta that will soft launch by end of year!
