I am an aspiring real estate investor, excited to dive into the world of property flipping.

What is the ARV?

You'd need to call the local township which I would recommend doing for any LTBH.

One upside to me would consistent rent scale, meaning if you upgrade one unit early, you set the table for all of the units when done because they are all the same.

Your peace of mind matters.You’re not late—you’re just starting fresh, and that’s powerful.

My first fear for you is that you don't really know much based on your questions and you might need longer to learn it than just trying to get and fund this deal. 22 units, with only 2 multis as experience, makes it harder to find stranger money, but more probably to find friend or family money if that makes sense.

Quote from @David Pennington: I followed @Jay Hinrichs advice and checked with the county and they have no zoning regulations about drilling.

I'm new to the forums and looking to connect on single family long term rental deals as well as vacation rental deals. 

Has the agent spoken to the builders in the area who may need lots?

I am from the Chicago area as well.
