If the project is in Canada then I would look to an attorney that understands international law as it could be more complex.Personally for something along the lines of what you are doing I would look to partner with another developer vs trying to raise the capital as that will be less labor intensive.

That is smaller units built with higher density to make the numbers work for both buyers and builders.Adapting to these challenges isn’t easy, but it’s necessary to keep up with the market.What are your thoughts on how builders and developers can address affordability and supply issues. 

To rent the home, I would lose about $2,500 per month (based on comparable rents in my area, property management fees, etc).Both options loose the same amount by roughly 2 years, and by this time, I still will not have built up much more equity in the home to make selling it a break even unless there is price appreciation by then.My dilemma is this: I speculate that my home will not appreciate much in the next 3-5 years due to the rapid pace of development in the surrounding area.In 5-10+ years, maybe, but by then I'll have bled $150,000 - $300,000.I have thought about this a lot and feel that I mar'-too close to the problem to see the best solution.

Hi, I am trying to transition to develop my rental income as I am in the final years of my professional career.  

There are many new developments going up but traffic in some areas are horrific, especially at peak. 

We have no interest in contact data gathering, as that space has been well developed. 

The buyers had invested a lot into the deal (~$100M) and purchasing the property was critical to complete their development.

I looked into this at more than one occasion, because Milwaukee has such an old housing stock, everything is 60-120 years old.Most of the new apartments we see are 4 and 5 star developments with very high rents, this allows to offset the high cost of construction a little better.

Build a strong team, prioritize cash flow, and take the time to understand the local market and regulations, especially for development projects.

I'm fairly new to investing and looking to wholesale at first, then develop a portfolio of rental properties in apartments, SFH or both.
