Getting started in new construction development

[Charles Peralta]

Hey BP Community! Looking to connect with aspiring architects or developers in Lee County ( Fort Myers , Cape Coral , Bonita Springs , Lehigh Acres ) or Denver County. Would also love to hear from experienced developers on how someone can get started today to work towards developing in the future. Primarily focused on new construction of SF homes, multi-family, or commercial properties. Any books, organizations, podcasts, even people to follow would be great! #DominateTheDay

@Charles Peralta A book I like that was written by a NY developer called "The Real Estate Game" really is useful in learning from scenarios instead of a how too.  

However, I will tell you one thing that a big developer told me out here in CA.  If you want to do development (specifically ground up), go find a piece of property you like and can do research on.  If you think it fits then just go for it.  

In other words, go do it and figure it out.  I know that is a very rough way to do it but I will say I learned more about trying to do a development by just going out and attempting one my first time then I ever learned through other people or school.
