I was made aware this weekend by one of the investors on our Facebook group that Marco Santarelli on June 18th, 2024, held a "web seminar" again soliciting investors.

Quote from @Pat Arneson: I’m looking for someone to help ease my thoughts… California Bay AreaI have everything ready to go for my first flip… financing, financial spreadsheets, acquisition and disposition playbook, design criteria, etc.

We are currently looking at a HUD home in Georgia - I have a couple of questions and can’t seem to find a definitive answer - The home is currently in the OO listing period - our plan would be to buy the home doing extensive renovations (the home is in a “Historical” area so renovations have to be approved) once completed we plan on living there full time - it could take ip to a year to complete or longer I don’t know  - as I see it the OO designation is to be the OO for a min of 12 months - is this after the home has been renovated or after you close on the home - though the house could probably technically be lived in now it does have some water and roof damage and needs complete redo of electrical and plumbing - for me to deem it safe - so not really livable by normal standards - but no way it would be livable in just a couple of months - any thoughts or an actual answer to the OO rules 

On another web site, I learned that there was to be a meeting with the receiver, Charles Adams, concerning the progress (or lack of same) on this situation.

@Nathan Gesner  Don't believe everything you read, especially on the web. 

This significantly lowers the cost per door and improves your return on investment.Scalability: A three-story walk-up design allows you to maximize your build cost and land use, just like most professional apartment developers do.Control with New Construction: Starting with a new build ensures fewer risks, as you’ll have control over the property’s condition and avoid surprises from existing structures.Pro Tip: If you do go with an existing property, make sure to thoroughly vet the deal to avoid hidden costs and issues.For first-time investors, multifamily new construction is often the best way to scale quickly, reduce costs per unit, and build a sustainable rental portfolio.

Take for instance an “A” located 1 +1 duplex where units rent for $2,000/m and compare the building to an identically designed “C” located 1+1 duplex in the same market where units rent for $1,200/m.

Studying for and receiving the CCIM designation will be a solid plus.
