If your talking about a multi unit it that you live in one unit then having savings is likely your best bet.

Your best bet is to either get a job working for a PM or partner with a PM to build the business.

There is another way to see the listing prices history if I can't see it on those webs?

I think you need to more likely look at a CTP (construction to permanent) loan and your best bet with that tends to be a local banker in your area.  

Online Auction Sites - Realauction.com, LLCYes you're right, but it's not the only one, there are other platforms depending of the state and the tax lien type (e.g. redeemable has a specific platform), some county has his own system, finally, the main difficulty is to be updated on all upcoming auctions and retrieve the lists to do the research.There are no other platforms for the counties appearing on the Realauction web site. 

I’d bet over 99% of people who learn about it in his system fail at it and It costs $1000 or more to get started.

Hi James, Your best bet is to search Google or BiggerPockets for hard money lenders in your area.However, you can also contact private money lenders directly and shop around for the best price yourself. 

Quote from @Chris Seveney: @Brian CarberryI wish Vegas would carry betting lines for candidate agendas.

Or is Indio a good safe bet with potential appreciation - especially the Terra Lago area?

If its something more major, then you came out on the bad side of your bet.
