I am sure there are lots of different reasons for it. well they were replaced by those crossing the border 750k out of 42 mil probably not that big of an impact.. traffic is still really heavy I was just there last weekend in the SF bay area no signs of the state looking like some of the dead cities one finds in the rust belt or deep south.

In this approach, the taxpayer calculated that the cost to construct a new building (say, $300 per square foot at 2,000 square feet, totaling $600,000) should be allocated to building and the remaining balance of the acquisition should be allocated to land.Rule of thumb method: Some taxpayers use a predetermined percentage (such as 80/20 percent, 70/30 percent, etc.) for improvements and land.

Conservatively estimating new construction costs as $300/sq foot, the new duplexes could cost about $600,000 each to build (plus interest costs).

Dirt cheap bandit signs around town about 150 placed and dotted around local zip codes with hot spots of interest/traffic.3.

@Dalton Foote I purchased a vacant lot a few months ago and am looking to build. 

Most building codes by nature will not approve a home that small, most have minimum square foot requirements.

Weekends brings in people visiting family or going to a foot ball game and week nights is mostly contractors or other blue collar groups needing a place for the week that is nice but cheaper than a hotel.

I am not here to save anybody, I am simply telling the youngster here's a hand up not a foot down.

As the options come in you or someone needs to analyze their potential, do a drive by, get in to see it, and then someone would need to estimate the rehab - a quick way to do this yourself is ask three different GCs what their price per square foot is on a full gut and average them out and use that price per square foot for your rehab estimates.But let's say you get a funnel started and even analyzers to pick out the gems among the muck, now you need your contractor to come in and give you his estimate and then you need your financing lined up and get your term sheet based on your offer, the rehab, and what you think the ARV will be. 

I am at a point in life I like the lazy river investing strategy not the rollercoaster ride.Love that lazy river analogy, maturation in your investment career allows you to take the foot off the gas and coast a little more than the early stages.Is your debt fund a 506c?
