Building a House in 7 Steps | Step 2: Underwriting Your Build

Step 2 of the series: how we underwrite a build so we know the number we can pay for the land before we ever tour it.

What we cover

  • How we work backward from a comparable sale price
  • The hard costs, soft costs, and financing costs we plug into every deal
  • How we set a return target and cap the land price to hit it
  • Where we build in a contingency so the deal survives surprises

Watch the full breakdown above, then keep going with the related videos below.
