Price per square foot for new construction varies based on location and finishes.

Hi Greg, I can understand your point regarding the equity and purchasing a performing note, although being able to purchase directly from the banks and at a good price effects this.

A portion of each payment could reduce the option strike price.

We don't sell you the home as they do, rather build it out at cost +fee for you, allowing investors to enjoy the upside in price.

(You just need to be really good at spotting the big capex stuff up front and accounting for it in your purchase price.) 

Looks like price droppoing is on the way to some market soon,Quote from @Jasmine Hu: As title, I am interested in following markets: (no particular order)1.

Some of them simply forward your mail to you. 

Second tier entitlement will almost always be the cheaper route from a rate perspective.Depending on the price of the new home, you may cap out on entitlement.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

Bryan, with older VAs, the pricipal has been reduced so there can easily be enough bandwidth, newer VAs I beleive go up to something like 200+K, doesn't mean they use all of that to buy the first home under a VA, so there can be more to tap into, especially at today's prices.The best way to disclose, IMO, is to say that you may not be eligible for another VA loan, I wouldn't tell them they can't unless I looked at their entitlements and loan balances.I haven't done VAs for so,me years now, the amounts of the entitlements change with the median price of homes, I have never seen them come down, but I guess they could...later
