Hello All,We own a piece of commercial land and plan to build a medical/retail building approx 6000 sq ft. for lease.After the land is graded and all utilities in place including the storm water management, what could be the  approximate cost to build a vanilla shell (dry wall + hvac included) for a modern medical/retail building like this one.Also who can provide funding for this, land is paid off.

I'm a managing partner at a company that can assist with this.

I would be happy to connect you with a Investor Brokerage and Full Service property management with a local team in Houston.

If the negative cash flow is manageable and the appreciation potential is strong, it could be a smart move.On the other hand, investing out of state allows you to enter more affordable markets with strong, steady returns, helping you to build a diverse portfolio over time.

If there’s a significant difference, it might justify the cost of adding more beds.For example, we manage a 4BD property where one bedroom is currently locked off, so it only sleeps 6 (1 king, 2 queen).

Sorry to hear your self managing isn't going as planned...finding good tenants is tricky!

You’ll face hurdles like maintaining a steady deal flow, securing funding, managing renovations efficiently, and optimizing your exit strategies.This guide highlights key strategies for investors looking to transition from single deals to a scalable, volume-based distressed property investment model.1.

The worst thing is to pay for a service where you don't get a benefit.If you have STR's and actively manage them, then there is a good chance that you can treat the propreties as active instead of passive which will allow you to offset the losses with other forms of income such as wages, interest, dividends, gains, etc.

The paid off student rental plus the 2nd student rental helps pays off the mortage for 2nd student rentals and living expenses for me and my wife. the duplex was  cash flowing approx  $300 month with the old tenants We manage everything ourselves with some help from our family. 

We also would like to self-manage if possible.
