If you are looking to develop...

James Mann

If you are a real estate developer who would be interested in developing a property for commercial uses what are things that you would be looking for? 

Someone in my office just listed a few acres and I am determined to sell it. I'm working on creating a presentation for the land, community, and potential businesses that could go in this location if it were to be developed. I have never made a presentation for this sort of thing before.

What is it that really matters? What do you not care about? What can be done to really catch attention and convince someone to develop this property?

@James Mann What's the highest and best use for the property? How many VPD pass by there? What other new developments have gone up in a 30 mile radius? How many of each fast food, hotel, insurance agency, etc are nearby? Are you involved in the chamber of commerce? What types of businesses are opening in the area? What types of business are opening in similar towns in the region? What are the 10 fastest growing chain businesses in the area?
