Come up with some sort of structure to show your value and why they should partner with you.

I later learned that it may be possible to split the lot through an SB-9 lot split which may optimize the value creation.I would love to connect with community members who are planning / in the process / or have finished an SB-9 lot split!

Would have to do the math backwards by figuring out the build cost and potential value when the project is completed .

I used 25% down and conventional financing How did you add value to the deal?

When the limits are $3500 a year, I am not sure I see the value; but no problem.

A way I came up with is my family owns a small restaurant and a majority of our clientele are older people.

Every problem can be assigned a dollar value.

If your permitting is straight forward Pasadena is a good place to work.Building for value add rental prospects could be even better.

Being a real estate professional has no value on what we are discussing here.  

I would connect with top realtors in your market who understand the value of working with a wholesaler and try to figure out their buyer network.
