So freakin cool!
✨ From Pew to Pad: Nikki Ross’s Stunning Church-to-Home Transformation! ✨ When @nikki ross saw the potential in a century-old church, she didn’t just restore it—she reimagined it. With soaring ceilings, original stained glass, and even an indoor slide, her home is a masterpiece of creativity and sustainability. 🏰 Fun Fact: The “churchhouse” has kept much of its historical charm while integrating modern touches like a sleek, open kitchen and cozy, sunlit nooks. Talk about blessing your space! But Nikki’s project isn’t just about beauty—it’s about adaptive reuse, a practice that breathes new life into forgotten spaces. By converting buildings like factories, warehouses, and churches into homes or businesses, we preserve history, reduce waste, and create something entirely unique. 🌱 Did you know? Adaptive reuse also helps cut down on carbon emissions by repurposing existing structures instead of demolishing them. It’s sustainability, creativity, and development all in one! 💡 Want to turn your own bold ideas into reality? Our real estate development course dives deep into topics like adaptive reuse and innovative design. Learn how to unlock the hidden potential in any space! ⏳ Hurry—registration ends soon!

Such great info Kristi Kandel!
Rebuilding After the LA Wildfires: What Homeowners Need to Know In the aftermath of the LA wildfires, many homeowners are now facing the difficult task of rebuilding their homes. The process is long, complex, and filled with challenges, from navigating insurance claims to dealing with local regulations and utility delays. Here are a few important considerations that we learned in FL from Hurricanes: 🔹 SBA Disaster Loans – Homeowners affected by the wildfires may be eligible for SBA disaster loans to help secure a new primary residence while rebuilding. 🔹 Expect a Lengthy Rebuild Timeline – Rebuilding involves multiple steps: working with architects, pulling permits, securing construction loans, and hiring contractors. Even under ideal conditions, the process can take at least 2 years. In California, a safe assumption is 3-5 years. 🔹 Permitting and Utility Delays – One of the biggest obstacles in rebuilding is the time it takes to secure permits and restore utilities. Local officials may consider waiving permit fees and expediting new service requests to speed up recovery efforts. 🔹 Zoning and Density Opportunities – Recent updates to California’s zoning laws allow for greater density or the addition of ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) on single-family lots. Homeowners may want to explore these options, to help mitigate their financial impact. 🔹 Construction Loans – In cases where insurance falls short, homeowners will need to secure construction loans to rebuild. 🔹 Insurance Coverage Gaps – Many homeowners will find that insurance payouts fall short of what’s needed to fully rebuild, especially when rebuilding to current codes. It’s also important to understand that insurance typically covers the structure only, not the value of the land. Here are examples from FL of how insurance shortfalls can impact homeowners: Example 1: A property purchased for $1.4M with a mortgage of $1.1M. Insurance covers up to $650K for the structure. After a full insurance payout, there is still a $450K shortfall owed to the mortgage lender. Example 2: (same numbers as above) In cases where flooding caused destruction, coverage is capped even lower. For example, flood policies max out at $250K in FL, leaving a homeowner with a $1.075M shortfall on the mortgage. The road to recovery will be long, and many homeowners may feel overwhelmed by the complexity of the process. However, by understanding these key steps and seeking out available resources, communities can work together to rebuild stronger. Access to trusted contractors, financial support, and streamlined processes will be crucial in helping families get back on their feet.

Can’t wait to see these guys pull this off! 😍
Just 2 college students with a dream. No perfect GPAs. No special connections. No fancy experience. Just ambition, grit, and a belief that you don’t have to be spectacular to do spectacular things. Rajen and Renzo are 22-year-old college students who just bought raw land with a vision to turn it into a luxury cabin and stay-away community—the start of what they hope will become something big. They didn’t grow up surrounded by developers or investors. They didn’t inherit the blueprint for success. What they have is a relentless desire to build something beautiful, and they’re inviting us all to follow along as they prove that ordinary people can create extraordinary things. This is day one of building Royal Oak Retreat—and their journey is just getting started. 👉 Follow their story on instagram: @chida.rajan @sanio.renzo @royaloakretreat Who knows? Maybe they’ll inspire you to start something spectacular too. Local Real Estate Developers is a proud mentor and supporter. They are going to do some really special things. ❤️ Shout out to Isaac French for creating the hospitality blueprint and sharing it with other hustlers! #RealEstate #Development #Entrepreneurship #ShortTermRental #CollegeBusiness #LuxuryRetreat #InvestmentJourney #BuildingDreams #FollowTheJourney #RoyalOakRetreat

Why should you, as an existing real estate professional, choose development? 🏗️ Real estate development allows you to go beyond buying and selling properties—it’s about creating something extraordinary from the ground up. It’s where creativity meets strategy, and the potential for larger margins makes the challenge worth it. 🚀 For Kaylene, this journey was a no-brainer. With a strong background in project management, she already had the skills to manage moving parts, lead teams, and oversee budgets. Pairing that expertise with her passion for creativity made development the perfect fit. The cherry on top? The opportunity to design projects that reflect her vision and unlock financial opportunities far greater than traditional real estate deals. ✨ It’s not just a career move—it’s a way to combine what she loves with what she’s already great at. And now, YOU can take the same step. Early bird sales for the Masterclass in Real Estate Development are officially OPEN! 🐦 Register now and take advantage before spots fill up. https://lnkd.in/d9VXYUug Let’s build something incredible together. 💼💡 #RealEstateDevelopment #CreativeOpportunities #BiggerMargins #MasterclassJourney #EarlyBird #course

What gives a development project its edge? It’s not just about building something new—it’s about being deeply rooted in your community and understanding its unique needs. Take our co-founder Lynn Makela, for example. When she took on a project in Hancock, MI, she leveraged her local network to set up key meetings with city officials, lenders, business owners, and state agencies offering redevelopment grants—all within two days. That groundwork ensured @takkasaunas Portage would become more than a project; it’s now a beloved community asset that locals and visitors can’t get enough of. Being a local developer gives you a unique edge: • You truly understand your community’s needs. • Your connections build trust and accelerate progress. • Your projects create lasting, positive impact where it matters most. Our Build It: The Real Estate Development Accelerator is here to help you harness these advantages and turn your vision into impactful projects. 💡 Have a project idea?
