Most people outside the profession don’t understand the time and capital it takes to make a project come to fruition.Before a single piece of equipment touches the ground, there are years of government meetings, environmental and site assessments, engineering studies, etc.Each step requires significant time, effort, and capital investment.But when done right, it creates a ton of value and transforms communities, which is why I love it.

Good causes for eviction include not paying rent, interfering with a neighbor's right to quiet enjoyment, criminal activity, living conditions that impact the safety of others or damage the property, etc.I argue it's more than just a BS term, it's Social Engineering.

@Jenny Milu Start reading online about the function of the Airbnb algorithm.  

I currently work as an embedded software engineer.

Since IB has gotten so many positive remarks here, I may reconsider it, since it is weighted very high by the algorithm. 

That doesn't give them what they need.If it needs a stamp by a licensed Architect or Engineer, that cost would be additional.

This all helps the algorithm. 

Denver is an attractive metro for a few reasons, so I downloaded monthly price and rent growth at the zip code level from Zillow’s public housing data.I then used a ranking algorithm to sort the top 10 zip codes for investing based on monthly average price growth and monthly average rent growth (both by percent growth), from 2019-2024.

I would say including architect, engineering and permitting costs, you'd be at about $250,000. 

This would probably help since the next one I build I could immediately put for sale and do a short term rental while it sells.I have many years of construction experience and have also done a fix and flip, in addition to building ground up construction, as well as 10 years of entrepreneurial experience running a paddle board rental company... i have a BS in Physics from Georgia Tech , a PhD in Theoretical Chemistry from UT Austin, and did Postdoctoral research using Computational Engineering where I designed, manufactured, and tested a shock mitigating metamaterial...
