I am looking into residential construction companies and want to get an idea of the markets direction in the areas mentioned and start networking with investors in the area. 

One of the biggest mistakes newer investors make is over-rehabbing houses and spending too much money on these low ARV homes.

It is balance sheet heavy but for some reason, most investors in BP are just focused on P&L and they stick with these free accounting platform that doesn't even utilize the Balance Sheet.A lot of the time when I clean up client's books, it's mainly in the balance sheet that needs to be fixed up.

This is how investors are maximizing both cash flow and affordability.🚀 Making It Work1️⃣ Optimize Your Space – Converting a living room or office into an extra bedroom can supercharge returns.2️⃣ Target the Right Tenants – Young professionals, digital nomads, and students love co-living setups.3️⃣ Automate the Management – Using systems for roommate screening, lease agreements, and shared expenses makes it passive.Co-living is gaining serious traction in house hacking circles, and I’d love to hear from others who are using this model.

Any other investor has experience this before and what are the course of actions I can take to have my deposit back? 

I'm an investor and speculator, I've invested in businesses, real estate. notes, commodities, and anything else where I feel I am able to generate above average risk adjusted returns.  

Most county's and areas have a Real Estate Investors Association and can often be found through Google.

Typically investors with smaller net worths accumen level is not the same as more experienced investors.

Not every deal is going to make sense to every investor.
