In July 2022 my wife and I bought a larger home to be our primary, and we have since rented out the condo. - Despite 3 tenants in under 3 years, it has done very well for us and has only been "vacant" for 15 days in that period, and has great cash flow, ~$1000/mo due to ~50% equity in the property, and a low covid-era interest rate. - I have been saving ALL of my cashflow into its own account to accumulate to buy the next rental (totaling ~$24,000).

I bought vacant land, built a spec home and sold it to an end user.

I have a portfolio of homes in the area

Then you'll need to find land, acquire it, find a spec home buyer and set up meetings to design plans or buy a set online with mods.

My father is a certified contractor in NJ—he’s built one home, flipped four, and consistently handles upgrades and maintenance for me and his other clients.I’d appreciate any tips or stories from those who’ve turned equity into a profitable venture.

Something like practicing math homework at home, but with a focus on real estate instead.My pleasure, man.

@Mike Levene do any of you own your homes currently?

Key Details of the 45L Tax Credit:The credit offers up to $2,000 per eligible unit for builders and developers of residential homes that meet specific energy efficiency criteria.To qualify, the units need to meet or exceed certain energy performance levels in comparison to the national model energy code (e.g., the 2006 or 2009 IECC — International Energy Conservation Code).Cost Considerations for a 90-unit or 112-unit Project:The actual cost of qualifying for the 45L tax credit depends on various factors, including:Energy Efficiency Compliance: The primary cost will come from ensuring that each unit meets the required energy efficiency standards, which typically involve energy modeling, certification from third-party energy raters, and potentially upgrading insulation, HVAC systems, windows, and other components of the building to meet the necessary performance levels.Energy Modeling: Typically, you'll need to pay for an energy consultant or engineer to model the building's energy performance and ensure it qualifies for the credit.

Like in this case, wanting a new home. 

And a condo can take longer to sell when you exit compared to a detached home.
