I'm playing with the idea of the Murphy bed cabinet with two accent chairs.

For comparison, I just completed two new build duplexes in a flood sone in central Houston using a builder for these and my Hard + Soft costs were $149/ft. the only additional cost to factor in was the land.

Please feel free to reach out to me and my team if you would like to come up with a game plan and build your buy box. 

I am currently contracted to a large major energy company and I work a 2 week rotation in West Texas, so two weeks on and two weeks off.  

why not build in a more affordable price point. the largest two builders in America build non luxury maybe take their advice?

Then I plan to become a travel nurse and we will live in the RV while the two are being rented out and go from there buying more properties.

I own two properties there, but insurance costs have skyrocketed.Lately, securing home insurance has become increasingly challenging due to the high risk of hurricanes, flooding, and other factors.

Look at one or two of the units, do they look like crap or do they look like the neighborhood??

My husband wants to stay in our local market for two reasons.

If you have two gates which requries two police officers then they need a supervisor.
