If they can own their dream escape, eliminate the costs and annoyance of booking a rental every time and carry most of some of the costs by house sharing with someone else, that's good enough for them. 

So as noted its best to be locked in and loaded for when the dream property presents itself. 

Honestly no, margins generally get even worse at lower price points, not trying to be a dream killer, I just know so many agents just make crap up or just haven’t flipped so they don’t understand the numbers involved, it’s near impossible to find anything I do a few hours a day everyday in 15 counties looking for deals on the mls, through wholesalers etc & I haven’t bought anything in over two years.

They told us the price - we negotiated and We bought it, year later we knocked it down to build our dream home.Goes to if you don’t ask, you won’t get a yes.

Trying to build out that dream team of contractors and subs as well.A mentor would also be super helpful, but like I said, still building out that network.As far as my personal situation, I have a good credit score, a decent amount of savings (200k cash) and a little more than that in investment accounts along with some equity in my current home, a mortgage, and car payments.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

With AI streamlining processes, these homes are becoming more affordable and customizable, potentially offering a dream come true for many.But here's the question I have for all you savvy real estate investors: could 3D printed homes become so commonplace in 15 years that they significantly impact traditional US real estate prices?

but if you fly it then its a dream come true and a true time machine..

These investors connected with me from out of state early last year 2023, and 90 days later were operational in Florence Oregon with their first STR and dream walk to the beach Oregon Coast vacation rental.

The beauty of real estate lies in transforming a hoarder house into someone's dream home.

Should I just advertise "Let me build your dream home" and use their financing?
