And we do a lot of small residential projects - additions and new homes.

@Stephen Thomas What's the projected time frame and amount you are needing to fund?

I’m only saying this because you say this is your first project.

Out of caution, I get more bids to complete the project. 

I am surprised to see Austin projections are only around half of DFW.

This project is near its completion and should open up in late 2018.Water Street Project: This is a public project that will help to connect many of Tampa’s attractions and facilities together via walking paths, 13 acres of public park, gathering areas, and other outdoor infrastructure.

You could look into a hard money loan in order to finance the deal and go about it that way or even look into private lenders that want to get involved in your project.

Hello Biggerpockets,I live in San Diego and I'm a project manager in mechanical construction and looking to find a way to get involved and get started in real estate.

Purchase price + reno costs.Bank will then lend 80% of the property value once renovated.I use these on some larger projects that I don’t want to tie up a large sum of cash up front.

It's a very costly project, especially if you're having someone else do the work.
