You will have to sink 40K+ into it and it will generate less than $1000 / year before taxes.

Our company has generated more profits doing this land development process/land entitlement process than almost any other type of development.2.

I'd like to pick the brilliant and experienced minds of fellow REI's as to how to establish a solid lead generation system.  

I would love to make a buy and hold work as it's been in the family for generations but also open to a sale.

Was it a system generated value from the bank?  

- Up-front cost difference- Energy (heating) costs- Comfort- Resale value impact- Anything else that's relevantWhen I say crawl space, I mean a non-ventilated, moisture-protected (vapor barrier, waterproof spray, and sand/gravel), heated space, NOT the dirt-covered, ventilated space of old.Thanks!

@Brady Speers,Congratulations on the project - lots of energy and excitement!

The idea of thought behind this is that you are not going to live in the unit forever and will eventually rent it out.My concern is while you are living in the duplex would you be cash flowing on paper because you are basing your analysis that both units are generating income when in reality only one is generating income.

Hi BP community,Could anyone suggest a few successful and helpful courses/books on owner financing, education on generating leads and closing the deals ?

I also co-own an agency that does the lead generation marketing for Houston House Buyers here in Houston (as well as for other clients in multiple other cities - we just don’t farm in those other cities).
