And don't inspectors need to check those things?

By me all new construction >3family homes need sprinklers, plus 1-2hr fire separation between units, gets costly.

My parents own their property and have enough space to build a 4-plex. I believe they looked into zoning at one point and it was approved and now I want to look into building with my parents on their land. I need an e...

Yes you can invest when you are young. i would consider taking a sumer job on a construction site, especially if you can get work for a rehabber.

Hello Everyone,My name is Cameron Barnett and I just moved back to Raleigh to be closer to family.I just wanted to reach out and introduce myself and what I plan to do locally.I'm primarily investing in single-family fix and flip properties in Wake County and I've just started networking here since moving back last week and want to start the ground running.I'm always looking to expand my network and build mutually beneficial relationships and help out as much as I can.MY property acquisition budget is $650k and can buy and start multiple properties/projects at the same time as long as the numbers are right.I have tons of experience in real estate, construction , and business and love networking and meeting new people.There are times I'm too busy to take on more projects and can send them to other investors as I develop my portfolio here.Have a Merry Christmas and a Very Prosperous New Years!

@Jason Graves is this new construction or are you looking to add these to an existing building?

I have constructed both ADUs and true Duplexes.

Minor Updates, now major construction.
