When people talk about the cost per square foot to build a house it is typically 250 or I think 200 in my area (Boston suburbs) My question is- when people throw around this “generic” number, does this typically include the cost of hiring a gc to build the project?

I know a lot of people living in Boston are looking to purchase outside of the city.Let me know,Devon

With the right strategy and approach, investing in coliving communities could be a lucrative opportunity for those looking to diversify their real estate portfolios.To get you started, here are a few things to consider when investing in coliving:Location: Coliving communities are typically located in urban areas with high demand for affordable housing and access to amenities like public transportation, shopping, and entertainment.Amenities: Coliving communities often offer a range of shared amenities like co-working spaces, fitness centers, and social lounges, which can be a major draw for potential residents.Management: Must be specialized management for coliving or it will result in high turn-over, tenant conflict, and property damage. 

Hi Everyone, my wife and I have been trying to find a GC to install an exterior sliding door for us in our East Boston home.

Of course there is a point, where going OOS is the best solution: if someone lives in a market like Boston, Denver, San Jose etc where real estate costs 5x of Milwaukee and they earn a high income it is worth it.

I currently live in Massachusetts and own a 2 bed 2 bath 1300 SqFt condo in Boston.

I did a total re-wire of a 2 family, roughly same size, in 2012 and it was $15,000...but that was a totally different time for trades in my area (just outside Boston), it would be much, much more now.  

Substantial services are actually laid out by the IRS so such things as providing transportation, daily meals prepared, daily maid service, concierge services, etc. 

I also know that the Washington State Department of Transportation is going to build ramps to connect I5 and 529.

If you have a place to do so at no cost to you, charge them the costs for removing and transporting in both directions. they may be long term tenants if they're that committed to their own appliances, so if in your shoes I'd try and work it out
