Here are a few things that I like about the neighborhoods in Indy compared to other states: high rent-to-home-value ratio, consistent and gradual city development, relatively low property tax and insurance cost, affordable renovation service cost.From my experience, it's possible to find deals that meet 1% rule if you invest in *turn-key* duplex or SFH here, but they are harder to find, and could potentially slow down you from scaling up.

You could put in a range of numbers for purchase price and closing costs, renovation expenses, and expected returns and you could very quickly get a range of projected return on investments (although an excel spreadsheet could easily do this as well), but I'm sure as technology develops we will see even more sophistication in AI's ability to assist in deal analyzing.

To be owner builder without hiring a gc you will first need to have 3 completed in the last 36 months or can just developer rather than owner/builder  I'm not currently at the phase of transitioning into a home builder, more trying to learn the steps of how to better set myself up for success.

However, as these terms are not used "scientifically" in the Solo 401k industry, it's advisable not to focus on those terms; rather, develop a sense of what's required to maintain a Solo 401k plan and identify exactly what is offered by a service provider.The upshot of all this is that once you've adopted a Solo 401k plan, it doesn't suddenly vanish or become non-compliant because a "plan provider" or "plan administrator" resigns.

This reduces exit options and affects the value. 10) Small number of small units is the most expensive residential development there is.

Development is a fun and frustrating venture, but Real Estate is still a good place to find a win.  

I get it with the builders.. we saw that big time in the GFC however the deals I saw was them walking away from substantial EM deposits deep into the 6 figure range.. we did well picking up some lots from lot developers who had this happen to them..

Many developers leave the tubs without even a hanging rod which looks incomplete.

Price $25,000 they could have developed and rented.
