So I get it.It's a sensitive topic, but the truth is our old pricing wasn't sustainable for our company.

As the pit-bull leaves the ground, teeth bared, my son brings his knee up and catches the pit-bull hard in the chest and knocks him about 8 feet onto his back.I told the applicant sorry, but his dog had failed the temperament test.

While the time frame of the project will be much longer with raw land, the bulk of the money will go in towards the end of the project (when you start building), and IRR is sensitive to the timing of inflows and outflows, not just the total duration.That said, if you do a basic ROI calculation, it would likely be the other way around (higher ROI with developed land), as ROI isn't sensitive to the timing of cash in/out, just the duration of the project.

That may be a tough one to cut your teeth on.

Each state has their specific laws and these laws have teeth.

Oh my, what big eyes they have, what big teeth they have, trying to get through the door, well, you don't need to tell Little Red Riding Hood all that junk, just make an honest offer, put a sale contract in front of that lender, detail the repairs required to get to that market value and deduct those costs. 

This model is generally better suited for more time-sensitive and transaction intensive assets such as rental properties.  

I guarantee the first time you don't do the credit check, will be the first time you get kicked in the teeth(metaphorically, but in some neighborhoods, literally)

I personally feel with my first two attempts, my wife and laid out what we were looking for and it still feels like pulling teeth to get him to do anything for us.
