Ground-up construction is a hornet's nest of zoning, codes, red tape, and annoying neighbors.

I would just shift my focus from acquiring more properties to building a nest egg in a Vanguard Index fund...

First of all damage to the home, packrats create hidden nests .

She is in her 80s with a small fixed income and a dwindling nest egg. 

I am 24 years old and work in tech.I found BP a few years ago through another business forum but was only a college student at the time without a steady income.Now that I have two years of income and a healthy nest egg I'm looking to invest in my first multifamily property by taking advantage of FHA financing.

Initially our plan was just to keep it and use tenants to pay the mortgage down and it would be our nest egg for when I retire from the Air Force. 

If you are trying to install smart thermostats like a nest make sure that the unit you're buying is compatible.

I am considering the Nest Protect at more than 2 times the cost of a "dumb" Kidde system.

I've considered starting out with wholesaling to build up a bit of a nest egg without having a lot of money to start with, but that's proving to be equally challenging in it's own way. 

- Lastly, maybe buying a rental propety isn’t the best use of this nest egg until the 12 mos period expires.- What says you?
