The suburbs are great and the builders down there are putting in some pretty amazing neighborhoods for the price that have some incredible amenities.

I set up contractor/builder accounts all over town.

Whether you’re a builder , investor, agent , contractor , etc ! 

If this is a new neighborhood and the builder still owners over half the lots (or a different percent based on your local laws and customs) the enforcement will fall to elected homeowners once that percent falls sufficiently. 

Did a lot of fix and flip, was a landlord and a new construction builder for 17 of those 25 years 

If you are an investor, builder, lender, agent, wholesaler, or any other facet of RE located in the Quad Cities area, I would love to build a relationship.

But I think the majority of people that are hoping for a crash will not actually be able to take advantage of a crash.The fact that a crash is so widely predicted is a contrarian indicator to me.This is exactly what I have been preaching - zoom out - there is simply not enough supply to justify a crash. basic econ 101 at a certain point. supply chains issues still hammering builder cost-bases and timelines, limiting new home builds and pushing their prices up Wrote a post about this earlier today actually!

The mindset of aged buildings, especially in MN where much of the builders were of German/Scandinavian decent/import, was building a home for durability, longevity and strength.

Working with new builds and builders has its own set of frustrations but was the way that worked for us.

For land, mostly you have to purchase with cash unless the builder is giving financing.For construction, most of the traditional lenders are ready to fund full if you are planning to live inside.
