They claim to offer 50% increase in speed of construction and 30% decrease in costs.

This field is a different animal than ANY other in construction.

Unfortunately these projects often features the homes jammed up on the property lines with a complete obliteration of existing trees/landscaping features to make rooms for a monster house so it doesn't necessarily serve to 'upgrade' the neighborhood in many cases other than increased comps.In other areas I've seen a builder slowly accrue multiple lots of and develop them in a more tasteful manner with new construction that is architecturally consistent with the other new homes they've built adjacent and allowing for proper landscaping.I try to do everything I can to avoid complete teardown and rebuild, if I can utilize the existing foundation and utilities it is a huge cost savings both in construction and in paperwork and permiting.

Hello all,I'm a carpenter currently buying land lots to do new construction or extensive rehab work, specializing in Maryland at the moment(DC and Northern Virginia have to many end users paying retail prices for properties that typically would go to investors).I've done tons of commercial contracting (carpentry and millwork) and have a small cabinet shop but I'm moving away from doing much work for hire and focusing on my own projects.

I focus my practice on business litigation, evictions (commercial/residential) as well as partnership disputes, construction/home improvement litigation and real estate transactions.

I have a strong background both in construction and architecture.

I would like to throw my construction company's hat in the ring for the Portland Oregon area.

I currently own a small construction company and I'm looking to start investing soon.

If it's a new construction freshly rehabbed it would sell for $225k-$300k depending on where its located but older houses that are newly rehabbed sell for $200k-$250k.From a buy and hold side I would never want to be higher that 65(maybe 70%) LTV and with this model I don't see why I would ever have to.
