New constructions provide a lot of benefits for investors like low maintenance, home warranty, premium rental rates, and customization for use as a rental.

There are standard applications out there that you can customize to meet your specific needs.

My profit margins on a $108,000 job for a paying customer is much lower than 50K, much much lower.

A few of my regular customers know as well. 

For the sake of time, I'm just listing the Fannie Mae rules:In Section B3-3.1-09 of the Fannie Mae Selling Guide (page 366 to be exact) the rules to employment contracts are as follows:Option 1 -- Loan Delivered After Borrower Starts Employment - this means that the lender "sells" it back to Fannie after the customer has started but the customer has not yet been on the job for a normal amount of timeThe lender must obtain an executed copy of the borrower's offer or contract for future employment and anticipated income. 

I will refer all the tradesmen that you need and a great handyman, just P.M me.Contractors are by no means have to give out free quotes although we do because of customer service and good business practices.

I also have years of experience with sales, marketing, customer service, and social science.

Formica counter tops, bottom of the line HD/Lowes cabinets, laminate floor will of course be much cheaper than granite, custom cabinets, and hardwood floors.

Will require more customization on the part of your attorney and maybe slightly higher legal fees but good legal advice is more than worth the cost and you want to have it done correctly from the start. 

@Max Keller goals are to build a real estate company with a portfolio of multi-family and commercial properties under a mgmt company (preferably one I create), and to build developments and custom homes with a partnering contracting company.
