Quote from @Austin Prewett: The land comes with the house, so you're looking at the value of the entire property.The only reason to consider the land separately is if you plan to tear down and build on the land, but even then you are considering what the final value will be with a home built on it.

Having a strong team and sticking to your goals can lead to success.Good luck!

@Bryson Williams look up the rules for your state, in Virginia, if you own the property you can pull your own building permits and do your own work, this includes the mechanicals .

Trying to build out that dream team of contractors and subs as well.A mentor would also be super helpful, but like I said, still building out that network.As far as my personal situation, I have a good credit score, a decent amount of savings (200k cash) and a little more than that in investment accounts along with some equity in my current home, a mortgage, and car payments.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Get rid of debt, build a budget, and save.

I'm looking to build on .44 acres in Wilmington NC.

This collaboration underscores the importance of strong partnerships and local insights in identifying and negotiating profitable real estate opportunities.

My land is also buildable and I have plans from an architect for a 3 bd/2 ba home which would cost 300k to build (it's in CA) and is in an excellent STR location...but I'd need a construction loan to build it.

I want to use the rent to help me build up a larger emergency fund, to the tune of $20k more than I have right now.

If you need help with construction design, build, management of property I’m here to help.
