I am considering purchasing empty lots priced roughly $10-15K below market value.My plan is to offer owner financing for the land.These lots have water, drainage, and electric connections available, and mobile homes are permitted.The area is experiencing significant development, with the lots surrounded by new single-family homes.I would really appreciate any advice, feedback, or suggestions.Thank you

The code being cited by the inspector is below if you care to bother.Thank you.https://codes.iccsafe.org/content/IPC2021P3/chapter-7-sanitary-drainage#IPC2021P3_Ch07_Sec708 Could you put cleanouts within the interior (is there a basement?)

@Jim G.Per the International Residential Code if the glazing is less then 60 inches vertically from a standing or walking surface then yes it’s required to be safety glass as it’s considered a hazardous area.  

On the surface, it’s a game-changer.

Work with your attorney for what is needed to insure all subcontractors get paid by the General Contractor.Make sure the insurance covers Construction period and also materials.Talk with your Commerical insurance agent and they should address the above questions with you.If this is an older facility make sure your engineering firm has covered Fire Suppression systems and any Storm pond or drainage systems. 

I strongly advise anyone purchasing an old house to flip to ensure they have a clear understanding of the condition of the home's drainage system.

On the surface, the deal seems appealing, but there's a catch: the asking price is $475,000, which is about 18% over the market value (based on comps and DealCheck estimates around $402,000).Details of the DealProperty: Duplex, 2,400 sq. ft., Purchase Price: $475,000 ($197.9/sq. ft.).Estimated Market Value: $402,000 ($168/sq. ft.).Financing Terms: 2% interest rate, with a 9-year balloon.Unit B Income: $2,049/month (Section 8 tenant through November 2025).Unit A Income Potential: Similar rent or higher; Section 8 cap for the area is $3,234/month.Monthly Loan Payment (P+I): $1,386.Cash Flow Breakdown (if both units are rented at $2,049/month):Gross Rent: $4,098/month.Vacancy (10%): $410/month.Operating Expenses (37.3%): $1,376/month.Net Cash Flow: $943/month.Key QuestionsWould you be comfortable paying an 18% premium for financing at 2%, especially in a market where current mortgage rates are closer to 7%?

A shower is generally acceptable as long as it meets building code requirements for plumbing and drainage.
