You can probably get a construction loan to build on it, but just to buy without an immediate building plan on just to speculate that land prices will go up, unlikely, as there's no income stream. 

If the rates were uncertain I'd say now but they are planning to drop them, just not sure how much.

I did a lot of research prior to moving forward with purchasing a home at the auction, but there was still some information that I was not aware of after I purchased the home.

But an important one.

But other places, like here in CO, its five minutes and under $100.

I am an investor in CO and we're doing a garage conversion including the room above the garage and that is looking like it's going to be 150k but that is for about 800 sq ft including some foundation work, adding a full bath, laundry hook up, and kitchentte. 90-100 seems high for 330 ft to me but that may be CA prices! 

But Airdna gets their data straight from Airbnb and VRBO and is 95% accurate every year when they compare numbers with Airbnb.

Local lenders will have an advantage over non-local lenders but I would also recommend interviewing multiple and going with the one you click with the best.

I want to help my son and his fiance get a mortgage but we would need to co-sign.
