I bet its been great and the fact that you are being creative to post it is neat.

Depending on the size you are looking for, you can search realtor.com for smaller deals (mostly less than 20 units that are often listed by residential brokers) and LoopNet for small to large.

Going to attempt to summarize everything up to this point.Current Stage of construction: FramingWe purchased this lot about 3 years ago for $6000Have built 3 homes in this same neighborhood, this is our 4thTook about 6 months of re-zoning to allow for a variance in the rear of the property so we could maximize the size of the home, mainly to accomadate a master bedroom downstairsLot was vacant, cleared out a few trees and started on the foundation, concrete slabAltered the plan a bit so that the patio faced east instead of north, thus making it open to the patio.Project Description: 2-story home, 3 bed, 2.5 bath, 1 office, 1 game room/4th bed2808 sqft,  Lot  6,568 sqft        

I bet that confuses a ton of people

.$2500 seems high...not sure on sizeFlooring seems high - not sure on size...regional flooring companies in my market are very affordable and reliablePlumbing and electrical - I don't have plans to re-plumb or re-wire units every 20-30 years but do include estimated cap ex for fixtures.Off topic but consider LVT rather than laminate wood...it's very durable and can get wet.  

Combine that with the rusted out gutters leaking water on there and the California sunshine and I bet you dollars for doughnuts that the siding will be pretty rotted in places.

For the size of you project, I'd make sure you get a 9-12 month hard money loan. 6 months won't be long enough.

I bet I will get a deal out of it.  

A minor eventual lapse of a deadline or something but (1) it's better to know so you know what mistake to avoid in the future and (2) if everything you're saying is true, there appears to have been intention to deceive so all bets (for them) are off.

By looking at comps on the market that are similarly in size, upgrades or not, basement/ no basement, garage, backyard size, etc it can help you price out the property you're scoping out to re-sell or rent.
