Other ones in and around the city are The Boston Wealth Builders in the city, the Boston Area REIA in Medford and the Boston REIA in Dedham.  

Several adjacent lot owners  and I think we should work together and offer as a group for a builder.

Hi @Chuck Wiggins and @Mary Davey, Also check out Boston Wealth Builder's, it's free and I have met some great lenders and have a great hard money guy I work with frequently. 

The title is deceptive because although you include a link, the body of the message is an advertisement.

I would do a vacant or rehab policy through Foremost as there are several advantages over a builders risk type policy.

It would be a long journey and lots of know-how need to be learned.I need to find a location and prosperity and do fine detailed calculation with double, triple, cross check and need to find a good reliable builder in this area to team up (long term).

Hello, is there anyone who has worked with a project manager or builder consultant for a new construction project in Austin, TX rather than just hiring a builder? 

Got my contracts reviewed by a real estate attorney, etc. however I came across a company known as fortune builders that came and hosted a local 3 day event here in my city.

Harold its risk reward and what your comfortable with.8% is basically bank money I borrow from banks at 1 and 5.5 to 6.. so 6.5 to 7% apr.. and those are FULL doc deals with PG's etc.at 8% I would want to know this guy has money and get a PG  ( personal Gurantee) you may also ask for some equity as well.. very common in these deals.. its called a participation mortgage I have been doing those for 30 years they work great.ground up construction is risky from a lender point of view.. you have things to think about and worry about.1. what happens if it gets half way done and the builder walks.2. are the subs being paid... you want to monitor that as well.some things to think about.and generally I am not one to run off to an attorney at the drop of a hat.. but for a 500k deal I would have an attorney write this one up for you and go through the risk factors in your state
