Structural Insulated Panel System (SIP) framed houses can sometimes have large cost savings or Machine Framed walls and rooves can be constructed in-factory and then assembled on-site (and they aren't considered "pre-fabricated").What I would do is:1) Break out the phases of the construction   Architectural Plans/Construction Documents/Building Permit  Grading and Drainage  Foundation  Framing  Windows and Doors  Mechanical (HVAC)  Electrical   Plumbing  Drywall/Finishes  Fixtures  Paint2) Identify what you can do yourself (best way to save money), remove it from the scope of work3) Research or solicit bids from several contractors asking each for a price for all of the above (they may need a set of plans, so that'd be the best place to start)4) Research unique or creative methods of getting each phase of the project done    i.e. - Maybe you can get pre-made architectural plans that are easy to modify?         

Its a super unique piece of land, but the steep grade is making it nearly unbuildable for us.  

. $99 to form, can use a PO Box for Registered Agent (a very unique quirk to OH), and no Annual Reports!

But for about 2 years, I have been dreaming of building gorgeous, unique, durable, and high quality homes out of shipping containers.

It's what makes REI unique.

I highly recommend Spear Builders of Virginia, Inc. located in Fredericksburg, Virginia.They are a premier custom builder in Virginia and offer some very unique skills of blending old with new or going completely one off custom. https://www.spearbuilders.net is their builder website.

I'm probably unique, though, by being a full-time wholesaler.  

Short version is I have unique relationship to be able to buy master lease on building for $800k.The renters who pay to use the space covered by this lease is a breakfast restaurant concept that I'm an investor in so I have all their financials.The breakfast restaurant pays $20k/mo to master lease holder (potentially me), and then master lease holder pays building owner about $10k/mo.Total cashflow to master lease holder is $120k annually ($10k/mo).I'm tempted to do pull trigger because $120k/yr cash return on $800k investment is better ROI than most other deals I'm looking at currently in apt complex, mobile home, and multifamily spaces.

Hi All-I have a bad idea. Please tell me how bad on a scale of 1-10. 1 Being terrible, 10 being a good idea.Flat fee buyer representation. $59 an hour, or whatever wage makes sense for you and your market;  every dime...

Unique properties may have other fees.
