Are you focusing more on private lending or traditional financing these days?

Hard money lenders focus more on the property’s value rather than your personal debt to income ratio (which traditional banks use) allowing for quicker approval and funding.

I’m in a similar situation but plan to meter water and power with my own units that can be read.

Even at 30%, that's still 15,000 potential prospects.What you want to focus on is a competitive market rent.

Focus on Hartford and New Haven.

One of the most powerful things about Pace is that his approach isn’t just about mentorship—it's about community.

Also looking for the Matersminds  focusing on the overseas market!!

we do the same thing Jay but we look at this as return on entitlement spend and return on land purchase. we separate the two measurements. for return on entitlement spend its the total value of the land gain proven through either an appraisal pre and post entitlement from an institutional level appraiser by Berkadia or sale price divided by all of the soft costs needed to get the site to the finish line. we look for sites that are at least a 5x and typically focus more on single parcel sites that aren't assemblages and do it by going vertical not horizontal. as many have said there is much more risk in this strategy that you are doing that led to a lot of bankruptcies. also focusing on the luxury in my opinion isn't a scalable strategy. 

I am an investor myself and also own a real estate brokerage with a hyper-focus on working with investors.

I’m focused on multi-family and creative financing deals in VA.
