Started with a condo in construction, sold it when done and bought a beach land, sold the beach lend and bought 2 rental townhouses for rental in Greenville.

The following land belonged to my initial protege.  

In a dream world - the comprehensive solution does all this: *task management and sequencing where you can drop a property into a sequence ie day 1 call, day 2 mailer (have it automatically mail out something like a postcard) day 3 etc etc etc*project management outside of the outreach sequences for what's next in the process ie schedule inspection, send the contract, etc etc*ability to have multiple users drive around and if you see a property you can tag an address and add it into a marketing sequence, and also track the streets you've hit so you're not wasting time driving by the same houses more than once *dialer (ability to parallel dial numerous numbers simultaneously to make cold calling more efficient - Ive used tools like orum and kixie in other industries, and when you receive a pickup, the other calls are dropped) *skip tracing/data provider *website landing page for converting online visitors to leads*electronic signature/docusign*secondary branded landing site on different URL for blasts for deal disposition to your buyer listWhat am I missing? 

I think too many people move on to property number two and three before property number one is really in good shape and later they regret it.

Purchase price: $8,000 Cash invested: $2,000 I purchased 2.5 acres of Raw Land in Joshua Tree, less than ten minute drive from the park and downtown area in 2018.Purchased via seller financing.2k down with monthly installments to pay out rest.Current similar lots are selling for around $65kI plan to hold long term Would eventually love to develop something on the land-either an art park or residence.

For us in the PDX market we saw a little slow down in the fall but thats pretty much normal but the bigger builders are still buying land and still building at a pretty good clip..

Quote from @David Contreras: How difficult is dividing land that used to be separate, but is now a large lot as a result of a voluntary merger by the previous owner ? 

Here's some background: Data warehouses need the following: 20-50 megawatts of power, land (3, 9000+ square foot facilities within arms distance of each other), water and fiber optics. 1.

This significantly lowers the cost per door and improves your return on investment.Scalability: A three-story walk-up design allows you to maximize your build cost and land use, just like most professional apartment developers do.Control with New Construction: Starting with a new build ensures fewer risks, as you’ll have control over the property’s condition and avoid surprises from existing structures.Pro Tip: If you do go with an existing property, make sure to thoroughly vet the deal to avoid hidden costs and issues.For first-time investors, multifamily new construction is often the best way to scale quickly, reduce costs per unit, and build a sustainable rental portfolio.

Most of the big land wholesalers whole-tale the deals, meaning they actually buy/close on the land (using their own money or other people's money) and then list on the MLS to sell, because it is very difficult to find buyers without widely marketing it.
