Good luck

I wasn't planning on going this big for my first investment but the deal, location and potential to value add was too good to not go for it.Thank you! 

Good luck!

You will start with the larger pieces and fill in with accessories, wall art, rugs, and decor.Because I own cabins in a mountain environment, I try to avoid the new case goods.

I'd kick it to a triplex not duplex. build to rent will always be a good strategy. keep land costs under 10%, build less than $200 per sq ft stick frame, exit price you want a premium, work with someone knowledgeable.

Other than blocking them, not much you can do about them unfortunately :(Good luck and belated congrats on the new house :)

Good luck. 

However, these programs typically qualifies borrowers based on their income, such as tax returns.The DSCR would be a good option considering you and your husband are entrepreneurs and the tax returns don't look good on paper.

It seems like there's a lot of opportunity right now in that SEPA and South Jersey area (I'm on Long Island but have worked with folks who operate down there), and you're setting yourself up with smart partners, so you're ahead of the pack here already.I do have a good relationship with a strong commercial brokerage firm in that area, let me know if that would be a useful connection for you.

Definitely a very expensive lesson learned, need recommendations for a reasonable priced, good contractor please?
