:)I've talked to 2 mortgage loan officers and they both say that it can't be for a 4plex, because it can not be income producing or an investment property, even though I mentioned I would be living there.

I think NW Indiana in increasing in population (homeowners and renters attracted to lower taxes?)

The construction loan and term is 6.5% for 5 years but we can refi after development is stabilized (1 year) to a 4.5% 30 year which makes the returns much more attractive.

I do not read this restriction in any of the guidance produced by SBA and Treasury, and it also runs counter to NAR guidance as well.

Your local MLS will syndicate to Zillow, Trulia, Realtor.com and other sites which will help you increase exposure and attract buyers. - Open houses will help you attract active buyers and future buyers (some folks will attend just to 'browse', keep in contact with them!)

The impact will likely be spread out across the country, bringing some higher price markets down some, while raising up the attractiveness of lower cost markets elsewhere. 

Unfortunately you need to have volume in order to attract qualified individuals to work in-house.In the end my advice would be to pay for a good contractor and add time for them to fit you in their schedule.
