-Both homes have new windows, kitchens, baths, flooring, electric, solar, landscaping, you name it, with custom tile and woodwork. 

Since you are not doing super high end finishes as mentioned, doing high end flooring and all other stuff just above builder grade does not warrant tile or full wood flooring.

I recommend you call a local agent or broker to give you a better lay of the land so you understand the challenges/opportunities in this area.

I’m a 41-year-old father of six who loves the Lord and is driven by a desire to build a better future for my family through real estate.I own a small tile installation business, am a certified insurance agent, and am currently in the process of obtaining my real estate license.

lol it was a lot of communication and laying out upfront what we wanted/needed from the deal and then making sure it was all written out in the paperwork.

Quote from @Nathan Gesner: Quote from @Danielle Levy: I agree with Nathan, you should bring more to the table and lay it all out there so that we can give you the exact detailed answers you are looking for to be successful.

CA doesn't have an extra $30b/$40b laying around to do that, not to mention the additional billion to actually do the project to be build ready. 

If you don't know why, DM and I will lay it out.2.
