that sounds excessive to me), even if if you rent power tools.

They are also really focused on education which would be great for your stage right now.

Was it just excessive rain?

Yes I have finally gotten beyond the okay nice stage.

@Carter AndersonSounds like you may be in underwriting stage, if this is accurate I would underwrite without premium especially if you have no comps in the area to go by.If you do end up getting the property you can try to sell it as an added amenity compared to other properties and try for a premium. 

The total closing cost is $6850 which seems excessively high in my opinion.

@Corey Kenney hard money lenders don't lend based on your "friendship" with some stage guru. 

They also do light staging and photography on the sale, which really helps sell fast for top dollar. 

This seems excessive, and to set up owners for discrimination.What if one neighbor doesn't like me?

Also just generally speaking; building a spec house is a very tricky niche, even riskier now because of where we are in the market cycle (if the market turns during the development stage of the project you could get stuck not being able to sell).
