Was about to embark on a new construction project in Gainesville.  

An easy flip at 7-10% return might be more lucrative than a larger project that takes longer and more chances for cost over runs. 

What’s your vision for your next property - do you see yourself leaning towards value-add projects, or are you focusing more on turnkey options?

And I was constantly more worried about my own project.

Projected rent $7000/ mo.

.- Large remodels or construction projects (Live in Flip) can be self-managed, worked on directly, and the value add, after 2 years, is largely tax free up to certain limits. - Many areas around the country allow for ADU Construction - house-hackers enjoy similar benefits to remodeling projects by being naturally on-site for ADU construction. 

Small demolition projects make massive impacts.

A few public projects have cleaned this up but the area has never prospered since.

For me to build I would want to see recent comps of sales for the finished project you are planning. 

My job is our sole income and I get relocated for projects frequently so any property would have to be managed remotely (willing to invest anywhere in the states).Given the our situation above and our long term goals, I feel best next steps would be a heavy emphasis on networking and deal analysis.
