Private Money Lenders pretend that they need to pay their staff, the underwriter, the attorney to analyze your deal first.

I switched away from Wells Fargo several years back, and I can't tell you how much my banking experience has improved.

-It provides a barrier to entry against casual trespass-It gives a sense of security to the customer-It allows the owner to deny entry to owing accounts -It can be keypad operated for only valid tenants or time operated for access hours; either way it minimizes the need for staff involvement-It allows "tracking" of tenant access to identify trouble patterns.When I first started this current development, I had an automatic gate before I had any actual tenants

I worked with our HR staff in the medical facility to make sure they knew that I had a place (was a community of only 23,000 so not a huge number of options for travellers). 

Usually improvements are done by the landlord and negotiated into the lease.

Once businesses discover ways in which they can still stay in business, still be profitable, and do it with a much smaller staff, that is going to be the new normal - so when a lot of these people fizzle out in the hustle/gig economy, they're going to find out that there's no job to go back to.

The complicating factor is that I already own the land where the new property would be built, which would exclude any improvements from 1031 exchanges. 

Get into flips and into lending because if you lend, you're going to end up in a situation where you are in an asset that's improved as it's flipped because you buy, renovate, and flip.

I’m trying to buy a home from my in-laws and there selling the home to me for 100k the house value is worth at least 200-250k or more, and I plan on making improvements.

Many capital improvements, improved appearance inside and out.
