I use Stessa for accounting, I love it, it links right to my bank account/credit card accounts and I can assign purchases to different properties and units of the property for multi-unit properties and at the end of the year I have a simple report to give my tax professional 

Be nice to get them come down in price or give me seller credits. 

I also have a credit score of 756.

Did you pay with a credit card?  

And even tougher to get it financed.. from what I can see the only folks that build new are subsidized housing in some manner or  big tax credit plays something other than normal economics.

Some lenders offer construction loans, or you might consider a home equity line of credit (HELOC) after acquiring the property if you build equity quickly.Long-Term Goals: Consider how this fits into your long-term investment strategy.

Those frauds just buy 'carbon credits' so they can feel better about themselves, they don't really care or they would alter their lifestyles instead of pounding the rest of us with the guilt, Lol....And if we look at the temps for the last millenium instead of the last century, they can show that although we are in a temporary upswing, we're really on a slide into a colder era.

Those "good contractors" usually have the lines of credit or means to pay for supplies up front if they know they will be paid on time and are not desperate for a deposit to go get the supplies.

@Haiden Welch I'd lean into local banks and credit unions.

Some other banks will tell you 40% to manage your expectations but if you have a good credit and a the deal makes sense, the down payment shouldn't be above 30%.As to the managing of properties, if you can self-manage out-of-state in the US, there are no reasons as to why you couldn't do it internationally too and some investors do.
