Willing to help others out with projects if it means learning more about real estate investing.

Has anyone ever successfully completed a project where you need retroactive permits?  

@Andrew OttinoWhere are you at with this first project Andrew?

The details are as follows:Current Price: $370,000My offer: $320,000Condition: House is in rent ready condition but I have added $5000 for touch ups here and there2 Family House with each unit renting for about $1300Insurance/yr: $700Taxes: $11,500/yrLoan: FHA with 3.5% downpayment (30yrs)Here is a link to the analysis that I did as well in case that helps, this is analyzed with both units rented out to know whether the investment is sound, even though one will be my primary residence:https://www.biggerpockets.com/calculators/shared/2...Please let me know if I am missing something or if these other investors are offering too much.

(minimal 3bd room w/garage)  Projected Rehab Costs: from $10-15k. 

This is a key strategy to growing your real estate portfolio at a reasonable fast pace because you can recycle your down payment funds into the next project faster.Hope this helps.

The deal analysis that I do for land development is all based on getting a 200% IRR structured in the deal in a 12-month timeline.As far as negotiating JV deals, it is better to very specific.

I'm in need of an Investor Friendly contractor for my flip in Brenham, TXMy project is taking much longer then anticipated.

I have some background in construction and currently am a Project Manager so I would look manage it myself unless there is an existing Property Manager in which case I will see.I am happily married with two kids.  

- my name is Dustin and I am a construction project manager with 12 years of building experience.
