Quote from @Clark Thornton: Hi @Ken Wingerd what have you got cooking in terms of Fl new construction? 

I am just thinking in terms of applicances, electric, pipes?

In terms of partnerships and longer-term mentoring, I've only seen that work when someone had a deal, and what was in it for the other person was clear.  

Were there issues with odd city rules about the type of housing you are providing, in terms of too many non related in the same unit? 

I recently worked with a California homeowner who completed a 1031 exchange into two long-term rental properties in the Grand Rapids, MI area.The goal was to reposition equity from a higher-cost market into Midwest rentals with more stable cash flow, while coordinating both acquisitions and financing remotely.We focused on rent-ready properties rather than heavy rehabs, and structured the purchases together to keep timelines aligned and reduce execution risk.Curious what others are seeing right now in Grand Rapids in terms of pricing, rent-to-value ratios, or investor demand compared to prior years.

In terms of the foundation, I would just get estimates from several foundation specialists in your area.

I can bring a lot of value in terms of subcontractors I use, or advice on construction!

Depending on your price point, and general buy box, you shouldn’t have a problem finding solid deals here.Most people find small multi (2-4 units) in B-C type areas to be the sweet spot around here in terms of cash flow and risk tolerance.

Phoenix needs more lenders who think in terms of strategy and long term positioning, not just rate quotes.
