Marco and company are a legit brokerage for sure.on the build side  this depends on how much money your sending and if your sending to escrow or direct to the builder. also I am building in Ocala currently and time lines are no where near what we expected . and its almost impossible to control cost up front.so as long as your OK with flexible time lines  ( and believe me no builder wants to go long) and price of material fluctuation then you wont be frustrated .

I don't really want to invest in a D-class area.Tangentially, what are some of your "it's time to sell this property" red lines when it comes to the changing economic conditions of an area? 

And what is your price point and are you looking for turn-key properties or something along the lines of a "fixer upper"?

I have 8 buildings with possibly 9 lines that I would like to get a package deal on sewer scopes of all the lines.

I also always keep my rent increases in line with the local market, so sometimes I'll have tenants threaten to leave sometimes, and once they do their research they realize that it wouldn't make sense at all to find another property and end up paying the same thing.

And for those that I may be wanting to connect with that don't sign up from an email link, I will text them first, with a message along the lines of "I just wanted to check in and hear how you've been, address any questions, and give you a quick update on recent initiatives we have been working on" (or something along those lines).  

I’d love to connect with local investors and agents and, further down the line, with contractors when we’re ready to take the next steps.Looking forward to connecting and learning from everyone here!

However, I’m open to exploring opportunities in other cities or markets if the numbers make sense and align with my investment goals.If you know of any deals or markets worth considering or maybe even a deal lines up, I would love to know of it!

Say my neighbor wants to buy a 1 millimeter strip of land along our shared property line for 450k.
