My last remodeling co. was a specialty Design Build firm.

And congratulations on your last semester, and thank you for joining the military and serving our country! 

I have expierence in new construction, that's not a problem.Here is elaboration on the last 2 items:2.

Lived in The Woodlands for almost 19 years now and been investing up in this area for the last 9.

This is prime real estate, and is just about the last piece of land in this area.I have begun to develop a commercial property that I own with contractor garages, which is the extent of my experience in this space.I'm trying to get a sense of how to structure something like this, with using LP's, and also partnering with a builder, and carving something out in that regard.Does anyone have recommendations on who is currently working in this space and could provide some insight?

I'd be looking at multiple structures. we try to build below the average new build cost in our market in Columbus Ohio which is 515,000 last year and we target land 40-50k and urban core adjacent where we get higher price per square foot. we build for clients with margin around $190 a sq ft depending on multi or single. we can get that down in our triplex it's a little higher on our single family homes because of garages and limited economies of scale. hope that helps. idk Philly but if you show me the area and styles of homes I can give you some more insights. 

But I will be honest, the rentals I have been added the last 2 years here in DFW have negative cashflowed.

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

I am reaching out for your expertise regarding a situation involving a seller from who I purchased a property subto an FHA loan in March of last year.

Those chasing the last 5yrs experience are going to be rather sad at what the next 5yrs hold for them I think.
