.- Both Sterling and Bank of Marin offer financing to TIC developers for acquisition and renovation of buildings that will then be converted and sold as tenancy in common.

I recently bought a commercial condo (retail) and have been going through hoops with the seller (developer) to make changes to make the space ADA compliant. 

I still think developing good relationships with brokers is the best way and will get you the best results quicker than going direct to seller. 

I am in Tampa Florida so the investment market is huge here for both as well. 

To develop the property, you would need to demolish the existing structure.  

I was running an sms campaign through an overseas assistant, but I've been researching AI sms marketing platforms that actually handle conversations from beginning to end, qualifying and disqualifying leads. 

RM-4.5 zoning would allow for a higher unit count and could provide more flexibility for future development, regardless of ADU policy changes.One potential benefit of rezoning before any citywide expansion is that it might allow you to lock in additional density rights ahead of any potential restrictions or revisions the city could impose when expanding the program.

Definitely focusing on offmarket or even on market multifamily homes (minimum 4 units). started off in real estate development last 2 years but the paydays are brutal building then waiting to sell.So now looking to switch up strategies to purchase cashflowing properties and then get back to ground up construction or even possible fix and flips. 

I thought I was buying at top of the market in 2020...and 2022...but prices continue to remain high. 

Speak with the director of development (they're not always titled that way, so just ask for whoever deals with area developments, new construction, rezoning, etc.) to ask if they'd be supportive of your plan.
