If it's within an HOA, call the HOA's property management company and ask them if they know any of the history of the lot and if they see any constraints to building it and what steps it would take with them to build on it in conformance with their CC&R's.

I did this on a commercial building a few months back and the owner called me.

buy in a short term rental approved condo building in the urban core, pretty low risk. properties are appreciating at record levels, keep the price under 500k. buy a studio or 1 bed. we are doing this style development and it accounts for over 60% of condo development in miami dade. 

We'll post it here when it's ready. 

Hello, I'm a self-managing landlord and I'm looking to build a network of go-to people for maintenance and emergencies.

In the other two, it's new to seller but they are open to the idea.As far as the sellers, one is an experienced investor who wants out but isn't ready for capital gain tax.

i want to keep the group small. not like industry scale crowdfunding.if I can find a property which has okay cashflow (which is hard anyways). and can collect around 10/20 people who wants to invest some cash each.I build a company to own the property and give each person a share. and give yearly dividend to each, until sold.

Are all residential buildings (1-4) units taxed at the residential rate even if they are used as an investment?

I find their competitive set tool which finds comparable buildings based on actual data, quite helpful too in terms of vetting deals and providing proof of concept. 

There is not a bathroom in the building so unfortunately only option is a Porter Potty.
