@Ryan LaurettaIt does not matter where you start as long as you develop your team of 3 (Realtor, Contractor, and Property Manager).

However, developers can sometimes overbuild such that all of their new apartments suppress rents and occupancies of their competition.

That is why I've been developing relationships with real estate agents, lenders, property managers, etc to see where I need to be in order to be able to deliver.

Welcome to BP Nation, always nice to have another SFV investor and BP Member here.I do single family and multi family developments, general contracting, and more.

I'm looking for some recommendations for great agents that work in and around the following markets:North Hollywood, Van Nuys, Encino, Panorama City, Studio City, Culver CityWhat I'm looking for:* 3-5 years experience in my market of interest* Full time RE Agent * Knowledgeable on house hacking strategy and ADU development laws 

Yes I'm the largest developer in Gratiot County; so I'm primarily focused there right now. 

We are going to develop 4 plexes and other necessary housing in this area and we would really like to meet up with investors to help move this forward asap!

That being said, property taxes, HOA, etc. all play into that and those are higher in new developments usually. 

@Jon MasonI would have a shared sewer line agreement developed for both parties.  

Whatever you do think of it as a long term investment.There might be enough confidence by an inestor/developer or a farmer.
