My experience is that a big part of this industry runs on personality and being able to connect with people, and if you cannot do that you will be at a distinct disadvantage over others who can. 

@Vanessa B.Hi there, my name is Scott Choppin, I run a RE development company in Long Beach, we might be able to help.Do you have specific land parcels identified?

That puts us in line with other developments in town, hoping to run into some good deals on the materials that we're flexible with.

The practice in running analysis through the calculators itself is worth the upgrade.I live in North Jersey, but grew up in Brooklyn, NY. 

I was paying for Transunion at one point that said my score was around ~790 but when it was run through Transunion for WF it came back around ~745. 

There's a lot more than just running numbers.

Find a good real estate investor offer calculator and run your numbers to ensure you have good profit margins.

Also in the price range you are considering you are running a high risk of having a low quality experience.

Currently run as two units with the owner running his nonprofit in one unit and his convenience/grocery store in the next unit.He wants out of the property fast due to repeated armed robberies over the 20 years of ownership as well as overnight break ins requiring complete remodel of the front face of the building.

They run a nice operation over there.
