I'll first start with our due diligence materials. but first, I highly, highly, highly recommend visiting www.optoutprescreen.com.

Some people will say 3 bedrooms are highly desirable while others will say 1 or 2 bedrooms are best. 

For example, investing on the south shore may offer affordable property prices, but it may also come with high crime rates and a less stable environment.

Most of the houses we are finding on the MLS are priced too high for the numbers to work on a fix/flip. 

The interest rates are high now.

I'd include:Development and design.PermitsStreet and walks.Driveways and foundations (for garage and house without basement)Utilities stabs for sewer, water, gas, power, cable And any other factor I'm forgetting.Thank you.

Also need to be able to obtain a line of $10-20k for it to be worthwhile and be put to use on real estate (a $2500 line won’t give you much buying power).  

Very high interest rates, Easy times to find deals with conventional loans and hard times and recently the housing bubble / crash.  

Have a power circle and you will do well. 

@Alexandra Coryell this is going to be highly dependent on your lender and your builder.
