I am not from the area and I am trying to find out what it would cost PSF to build a 800-1500 SF residence in Grand Lake.

It was a good way for me to learn the industry and practices....but Im sure over the course of those 10 years, I paid far more money to maintain my license, which costs a few grand a year, than I probably made.

ahhh aint love grand?

New here :)As the Marketing Coordinator at Rental Property Owners Association (RPOA) of Kent County (Grand Rapids, Michigan), I like staying tuned into discussions about the trends shaping the real estate investing industry.

I personally think the credit card play is dangerous if you are borrowing and you have no real CASH.. you could make a mistake on what you use the money for and end up with massive credit card debt.If you can afford to pay them off if you make a boo boo then I don't see any harm in it if you want to give it a go.I know I could go out and get a couple hundred grand in credit card limits..

The top places I am looking at are Boise, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Grand Rapids.

Grand County allows them but the numbers are ... meh. 

Before i left, i left the last of my savings with my tenant, a long term friend (15 years) that rented from me for 5 years. my thought was with the 5 grand , he would have a nicer place to live and i would be able to maximize my appraisal and house hack a mutiunit. 

I don't have a grand understanding of construction, so it is a huge help if my PM does.  

I have been buying new construction Single Family 4/2/2 brick homes from a nationwide builder when they announce a Grand Opening.
