My wife and I have designed over 100 projects in 11 states, so her design knowledge has also rubbed off on me a bit! 

So developers are building multifamily on these parking areas.Since these areas aren't located on top of residential areas, the zoning approval process has a lot less friction and resistance from NIMBYs.Here's an example in Rochester where an old Sears was turned into apartments for seniors.https://www.passero.com/projects/skyview-park-senior-housing...For multifamily developers, this could be an opportunity for building and partner with the mall owners.

I don't necessarily need the standard features of pm software, such as rent collection, bookkeeping and maintenance requests, though that could help; but do need a clearinghouse of important information, such as leases, legal docs and other information; maintenance vendors I use; maintenance history; and some kind of tracking system, where I can record the various current projects I'm working on within the business.

@Ryan Cousins it's really going to depend on YOUR analysis/projections of what you think the property will be worth in the future.You'll want to compare that to any capital gains tax-savings if you sell now.

A shopping mecca five times bigger than Lakeline Mall, a 21st century mega-factory, an ever-growing Apple campus and a somewhat secret but sizable spot occupied by Tesla.
With a population increase from 2020 to 2023 ...

Or take the proceeds and do the next project.

Examples might include areas in the Midwest, Southeast, or Sunbelt regions.Multifamily Properties: Consider duplexes, triplexes, or small apartment buildings to increase unit count and spread risk across multiple tenants.Short-Term Rentals: If you’re comfortable with the management requirements, STRs in vacation or business travel markets can offer significantly higher cash flow potential than traditional rentals.Value-Add Properties: Look for opportunities to buy undervalued properties where you can force appreciation through renovations or better management.Decision FrameworkRun the Numbers: Compare the projected cash flow, equity growth, and tax implications of selling versus holding with a refinance or HELOC.

You may even find one or two who won't mind if you shadow a project they currently have going. 

This is a hard money product,you typically just need a 10-20% down payment, funding will be 80-90% of Purchase Price + 100% of rehab cost.AS LONG AS THE TOTAL LOAN AMOUNT IS LESS THAN 70% OF THE ARVOnce the project is complete you can then refinance into a DSCR loan.

Anyways, on my latest project, the title came back yesterday and revealed two extra parcels of land deeded to the seller under the property I was under contract for.
