Hey @Brian King, welcome to BP!

To match them, I use a formula Sofa: solid color textured pillow (2) + patterned pillow (2) + solid color (2)King bed: 26"x26" pillows (3) + lumbar/body pillow at least 48"L (1) - I'll do a print + a solidQueen Bed: 26"x26" pillows (2) + lumbar pillow 36" (1)Twin/Bunk: 14" x 20" lumbar pillow (1)In outdoor spaces, I keep it simple and match the pillows to the rug.For artificial plants I source from Nearly Natural, Wayfair and Home Depot.

Quote from @Devin James: Gross Margin is an important calculation for developers/builders.Gross Margin = Gross Profit / RevenueWe shoot for a 20% gross margin on our New Construction HomesReal #’s:Home Sales Price: $374KClosing Cost: $18,700Cost of Construction: $258KLand Cost: $30KGross Profit = $67K$67K/$374K = 17.9% Gross MarginCame slightly short of our goal of 20%Homes Values and Build Costs are constantly fluctuatingI wish we had a crystal ball build larger homes. average new build in our market is 2200 square feet, 4 beds, 3 baths, 2 car garage and sells for 515k. construction costs lower if design is good and find the median or average home sale price and push that up. my guess is you built too small. 347k is cheap. we target 429-479k price range in columbus ohio for single family homes and also only purchase close to urban core where premiums are 20% higher and we build smaller like 1500 sq ft where price per square foot goes up.

Quote from @Devin James: When running numbers on an investment property, I focus more on equity growth than monthly cash flow.Here’s why:If I can acquire a property at a low basis and add significant value, I can: 1) Sell and reinvest elsewhere 2) Cash-out refinance to recapture my investment.

Hi James.
