They build out the Pro-forma for you so you have an idea of what you are getting into.

yes of course you have to build above flood plains to even build in miami and most of the city lots are non flood plain lots that have been built on previously. even if they were you can build above the flood plain and pull it out of the flood plain once it is constructed depending on the parcel

It's in a well sought after neighborhood with good schools that I remodeled to appeal to modern tastes.

So, almost surely not a build-able 1/4 acre on its own when you consider its modest size, odd shape, setback requirements and the easements.

I am building a house this year.

This has a lot to do with your location, building class, etc.

I invested a bit over 150k into it and it's worth about 165k (rents for 1350).The other house is a 1977 build 4/2, it's in a nice/quiet neighborhood. 

So far, I've managed to build a really good team to support my business from agents and contractors to wholesalers and lenders.

Now, I'm particularly passionate about apartment buildings that have 20 to 100 units.
