If targeting new construction, keep searching for an extended period of time until you find a builder that has a good deal, avoid builders that clearly will be difficult to work with, it was easy to spot.

You're in a tough spot, but here’s what you can do:IRS Payment Plan: Set up a payment plan with the IRS to spread out the $200K tax bill.

I personally think you're in a great spot because you are asking questions and not just throwing your money around. 

A few spots will do it, but the property needs to have a DSCR of at least 1.25 or better and 720-740+ fico at that LTV.

Ohio markets show up 3 times in Zillow’s 2024 hottest markets, with Columbus and Cincinnati taking the top 2 and 3 spots.

Good agents are irreplaceable when it comes to spotting issues with the properties which might end up costing you way more than the commission fee. 

I am small time though built about 300 homes in the last 7 years or so.. 4 developments and spot lots in Charleston sc and  Ocala FLA ( Fla was not worth the effort for us)..

Townhomes are a viable option, as sing family houses in the best areas can easily get in the mid 400s and up real quick.I focus on North Raleigh, Brier Creek, Bethesda (durham county) to name a few spots.

Chris is spot on here.
