Yes, this is a very soft, hard money lender that I know personally.

Build cost is prob around $275-300/sf if you manage your own subs, not counting other soft costs. $400/sf and up if you hire a GC.Other than build cost risk the biggest one for me is the time to get the permit.

banks - hard or soft lenders are lazy and suspicious - you need to help them get over their paranoiaGive them all the information that is needed to process your loan request, give them more than they need, they will see you as a professional who is well prepared to take their money and able to pay them back.

By the time you pay for soft costs such as soils engineering, architectural design services, structural engineering, title 24 and permits plus construction costs it just won't be worth the head aches and even then it is a very time consuming effort.

The other thing is I think the market went a little soft in May compared to April.  

Congratulations on selecting the Branson market place as our market place offers incredible returns, is growing tremendously(John Morris who owns Cabellas and Bass Pro is building more venues/activities), Dollywood is coming to our area, and a huge water park venue, and much more.  

(use soft clause)I may offer to buy the real estate and split the land from the building, rent the land (lease) and buy the building with an option to redeem the land later (this is called a vertical break up which gives you a 50% discount on the transaction, while maintaining the option to buy the land later, it is a forced seller financing). 

For example, my building and the one next door is about 40-50% vacant, because demand is soft...

My dad was an Army guy, so I have a soft spot for that branch in particular.
