Like you won't have a big construction budget. It's not a burr. But if you underwrite the construction, right, you'll convert more deals because even as a wholesaler, there are so many landlord type buyers out there. That's why I love Columbus. That's why I love price points.

If you are going to be doing what I call like a repair remodel, paint and carpet, simple, nothing like you're not moving wall like repair. Thirty dollars per foot.

If you're doing what I call a redo, this is where you probably got to redo the electrical, probably got to replace the windows, probably got to move some walls, probably got to do like just you're fucking redoing the home, right?
