Well she shouldn't have given birth to a monster :p

I would definitely run numbers separately each property may look identical but they will be two different monsters in repairs although the market value maybe the same.I just listed a 4 unit for sale in DC, sold As-is.

I also have a contracting history in the auto industry now but in a completely different field, Robotics.

Or if you simply stated you were no longer interested, you were told you're not "coachable" and you'd be living the rest of your life like a robot just going to work and making horrible pay and those aren't the "type of people" Mastery is looking for (I'm not even kidding this is what they told us.)

They don't know if you are reasonable and easy to work with or a monster, but might be willing to find out for 3.5% versus 3% with other listings. 

but the best Is my fishing trip to BC in mid may for monster bows on the fly !!!

Or very high wage earner or monster stock portfolio and securities.

Development is capital intensive and if we are talking about true development not just fix and flipping SFR's which anyone can do. and takes not much capital.True development takes a boat load of capital.. it takes very good banking relationships that take years in many cases to establish.Now if you have a lot of dough  a few million in Cash you could buy your way in.other wise you have to work your way up... lenders are NOT going to lend to first timers I can tell you that... maybe some hard money guys with ridicules equity positions and are ready to take the project from you if you fail.. but banks nope you need a strong track record you need a monster balance sheet and you need liquidity in the 7 figure range usually.One way to start to get experience though is just do a simple lot split..

From what I have seen it appears the ONLY thing being built are monster apartment complexes.  

I always wanted to "be a builder," until Monster Garage came out and I wanted to "be a metal builder."
