Hi All,I currently have a 1/4 acre residentially zoned plot of land under contract via a land purchase agreement with the owner on the main street of the Town of Mount Rainier, MD (PG County), and a couple blocks away form the DC border.The market in the area is pretty hot, and the lot sits close to 2 major mixed-use developments (one of which, Studio 3807, which has been called the biggest residential development in PG County).I do not own the property outright - the owner still holds the title & deed, and I am technically leasing it with the exclusive option to buy. 

And its the same thing in our state with rehabbing houses to resell hardly anyone knows that you need a developers license.

I was referred to BP by a friend and I've recently developed a passion for real estate investing.

We have never built a house and our development research says you can built for all sorts of $$ / sqft and we don't have a good contractor that we can trust. 

Any advice is gladly appreciated, I am new to the development and new construction aspect of real estate.Thanks

It they are in the right neighborhoods then developers are coming in and converting these structures.

Try to meet in person most of the time because naturally humans put more trust into someone they physically see, body language and a lot easier to build rapport with.

Our hope while traveling the country for the next year or so is to connect with other investors  and develop a real estate business/portfolio that supports the simple, yet adventurous, lifestyle that we want to live while also helping others to do the same.  

I have development projects in these areas and always looking for moreCurrently in the Sharswood/Brewerytown area I have 3 triplexes full renovation, 3 duplexes new construction and in Germantown I have two large multifamily projects in the works

Then develop a financing plan, nobody is going to give you money for free.
