Because that is where we are moving towards as costs of new unit construction increase exponentially via the trinity of cost increases (material, labor, administrative). 

My client purchased 2 yrs ago and has been buying cheap old MH's and doing total rehabs on them (owns a construction/remodel company)  So zoning, no issue. 

I began working as a project manager doing construction management in a general contracting firm and soon after got my first taste of flipping an investment property for a client.

Where do new construction projects typically stall or go wrong?

Finance - you can go into lendingEngineering - you could get into construction and learn a ton on the job.

Any advice or constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated thanks in advance…..

I don’t think so, I suppose maybe if I hang on another 10 years and they’re paid offProbably would’ve been better spending my time doing flips or large multi family 20+ units new construction

As someone who has both a former felon who spent 22 years in prison for drugs and other guys who have spent some time in jail for lesser things on my construction crew and who are all very hard workers, have families, and turned their lives around-they know they can't and won't go back to those things. 

. - Your wife will get sick of living in a construction zone very quickly- The amount of work you get done in the first month will be about as much work as you get done in the next 11, the fun wears off...- In the end, financially worth it and the satisfaction of having completed it is priceless.

When I purchased they told me that once the residential section was complete the construction on commercial and retail properties would begin.
