I have been successfully managing projects for over 30 years and will be happy to answer questions regarding ways to control your projects to keep costs down and quality high.

I understand the concept of controlling properties to build wealth and the benefits that come from finding a deal and using the banks money.

Unless you agreed to completely back off and let me bring in new subs and have 100% control of the job...People don't understand....when you as an owner are too involved and micromanaging, plus have your own subs....the GCs risk, exposure and potential liability go WAY up...

Lenders often have no control over appraisal, which is intentional to protect the bank or to meet underwriting requirements.

Control and safety are good but sometimes growth requires taking risk. 

Well worth saving that extra 20% and controlling who is actually in your property. 

In progress,  I have a line of sight to the creation but need to close on some units and start raising NOI.Goal 4: Controlled real estate passing $3,500,000 of value. 

What controls the outcome is the size of the deal.

Jose, while you are considering insurance options, don't forget to factor in the things property owners may not control.  

In most cases where the unit counts are this large, these units are owned as part of a syndication or fund, meaning they retained ownership/control of “a percentage of 1,200 units” (and in many cases, I think these claims should be clarified, but I'll save that for another day...).
