In the grand chessboard of real estate investments, are you playing the wrong game? Traditional practices—buying from a realtor, borrowing from banks at high interest rates—seem tried-and-true on the surface. Yet, one must unravel the layers, exposing the structural flaws that gnaw at your profits. When land is purchased, the first profit and price increase take place. The broker secures a neat 10% commission. The developer, typically financed by hefty loans, hires a contractor to manage construction and subcontractors—the actual workhorses of the project. Because the contractor's license and bond are at stake, a substantial 20-30% markup to the actual building cost is added. If you, as the owner, hire the contractor, brace yourself for hefty "change order" fees every time you request an upgrade to the building plans. Blueprints aren't cheap either—thousands can be added to your total. Factor in the profit for the first owner or the developer, and you're looking at an inflated purchase price. Add escrow, title, closing cost, inspections, taxes—the list goes on. We estimate these can surge up to 40% more than our LLC would pay for a superior build. The hidden villain in the plot, however, is the property tax—determined at the permit-to-occupy stage or at escrow closure. This tax haunts your heir for the next 100+ years! Now, consider the alternative—our method at Rocky Ledge Estates. When our LLC gets the final inspection, we've met the same codes and quality standards as a contractor but as an "owner-builder". We shoulder the responsibility, chopping off the 20-30% contractor markup. We also save the 6% realtor fee. We use contracts directly with subcontractors, controlling quality while issuing change orders for their payments. Economies of scale further sweeten the deal. Our team, moving from one estate to another in the vicinity, executes repeated builds—improving efficiency with each iteration. You see, Rocky Ledge Estates is more than an investment opportunity. It's a revolution, challenging the traditional real estate game and forging a more profitable, legacy-building path.
