No requirement to be in the inner circle other than to get the 100% funding up to 65% of ARV, otherwise it is 90% of acquisition cost + 100% construction costs up to 65% of funding.

LTV dropped to 50%. 30 yr fixed @ 4.3% LLC (2)• Investment condo - new construction high end purchased in 2019.

I was broke enough that I couldn't afford rent at my apartment, but fortunately my landlord didn't notice, thanks in part or in whole due to some substance abuse issues.Anyways, when visiting my mom in the neighborhood where I grew up, I had noticed this construction van at a house on our street.

I have 2 options:- finance the construction pre-selling the apt, and take my profits (expected to be around 700K pre-tax); or- finance the construction with a 6-7%/year loan (collateral = my house), keep the 10 units, and once the building is completed in 24 months, rent them for circa 180K/ year gross.

You can get something that's turnkey or new construction at this price point, and most importantly, there's a strong tenant base ready to rent out these homes.

Any constructive criticism is appreciated.

I tried to rent one of these buildings for a developer. it was brand new construction, really well done.One after another is was voucher applicants who had criminal records, you had no idea who was actually going to be living there, some were high out of their mind and/or drunk, average credit score was 500, consistent late payments, eviction records, etc.By some miracle I rented one place out to 2 young girls looking to save some money.

I was previously in construction equipment rentals and did real estate on the side.

Determine if the area can support new construction.

In construction, there is only so much you can do to reduce your margins while staying profitable.
