These goals are lofty but I think I have the thing I was missing before when I first started and now I am ready to roll.My self actualization speech out of the way, a bit about my business.

If you do build a second story generally better to have an elevator especially medical office so consumers that are older in age can use it. 

@Evan Crawford - your friend could try to get a surveyor to perform an elevation report.

Investors and market participants are pricing in the possibility that rates could stay elevated.

I would say its extremely important to have a quick (like 60 second elevator pitch) for why you want to enter the business and what returns you are looking to get. 

He didn't give me time to give him my "im an investor" speech he out right told me he knows what i do which is flip homes and buys cheap.

As a society and as humanity as a whole, do we want to uplift every individual, or do we want to elevate our maximum potential – our ceiling?

We "model" everything, including the land, and 3D is available if you like.Cities and counties across the nation, as far as jurisdiction review goes, is essentially the same on the whole; site plan, floor plans, elevations, sections, details, electrical, etc., but we must go further.

If there is not a big event that is gonna elevate the price fast, then you are over paying in my opinion. 

My worries are the interest rates will remain elevated so securing another 6% interest rate on a property might be tough to do anytime soon.would love some advice, thanks!
