GROUND-UP DEVELOPMENT IS THE ULTIMATE WEALTH BUILDER 💰

In this powerful episode of The Real Estate Investing Club, I sit down with Daniel Angel from Apex Investments to reveal why ground-up development might be your secret weapon for building serious wealth in today's challenging market. Daniel shares his incredible journey from corporate banking in Colombia to building a vertically integrated development company in Atlanta that's crushing it with both build-to-rent and build-to-sell strategies.

WHY NEW CONSTRUCTION BEATS FIX & FLIP 🔨

Daniel breaks down the exact moment he realized ground-up development offered better margins and more predictable outcomes than traditional fix and flip deals. With rising home prices squeezing margins on renovations, buying raw land and building from scratch has become increasingly attractive. The best part? No surprises when you knock down walls because there are no walls yet! This predictability allows for better planning, more accurate budgets, and ultimately higher returns when executed correctly.

THE FOUR-PACKAGE SYSTEM FOR PROFITABLE BUILDS 📊

Discover the exact matrix system Daniel uses to streamline his development process across multiple price points. From builder-grade to high-end finishes, his team has created four distinct packages with three variations each, allowing them to serve markets from $500K to $900K without reinventing the wheel every time. This systematized approach is what separates hobbyists from professionals in the development game, and Daniel walks us through how anyone can implement similar systems in their own business.
