Good question Trevor, I think you’re already thinking the right way by wanting to understand how to approach land for development before diving in.One thing I’ve seen (and am learning myself) is how much really comes down to the land selection itself, especially for smaller scale projects.If the path to utilities and zoning isn’t clear upfront (or at least workable), it can eat a project alive later.

Taking advantage of that early momentum is critical.Many sellers hope for multiple offers—ideally above asking price—and while that's a great outcome, it doesn't always happen.

When your selecting mattress types for your STR, (Florida Panhandle 2 blocks to the beach) what type of mattress are using when it comes to softness to firm?

The most important part of investing passively is selecting the right partner - but before you make that decision you ahve to decide if the operator is involved in an asset class you are comfortable with. 

Some advantages were we didn't need a realtor which saved us on fees and I was able to carry a seller 2nd for a short period of time on a portion of the portfolio. 

are you going to be able to travel to Indianapolis in person to select your properties and supervise your BRRRRs? 

This is the path of least resistance for most people as it does not require 20-25% down, and you can take advantage of the best rate. 

However there can be other advantages to the buyer other than a low interest rate. 

Swinging your own hammer, doing your own plumbing, making your own mistakes, screening your own tenants, and otherwise doing it yourself is part of the advantage of a house-hacker.

If I have no bias naturally, naturally it cant come out in my selection.
