Utilizing a combination of these tools can give you a well-rounded view of the potential costs involved in building a house from scratch. 

I am also potentially looking to expand into managing mid-term and short-term rentals.

There is a huge difference in value.Also, your valuation of the value of the structure based on potential rent does not account for the value of land, which you are not providing.

We're particularly interested in gaining knowledge in property analysis and expanding my network to collaborate on potential deals and learn from the experiences of seasoned investors.We're grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this community and look forward to contributing, learning, and growing together.

This will cost thousands more to complete and loose many potential buyers .

We had someone reach out looking to see if we would be interested in a 6 month rental from an insurance company that they would potentially have someone stay for 6 months, with then 30 day notice month to month tenant at will if construction isn't finished in time.They mentioned working with insurance agencies and shows on Airbnb he has multiple reviews and properties, but that he had a contact reach out in my area where he doesn't have rentals. 

My plan is to start with a property management team (currently researching and meeting with some potentials), as I’m at my band width running after my 3 young kids.

You should start speaking with potential brokerages whenever you are almost ready to jump into this one-of-a-kind industry.
