Next Steps for Newbie Developer

[Charles Burgess]

Hi everyone.  So like the majority of investors right now, it has hard for me to find cash flowing rentals due to appreciation + high interest rates.  Therefore, my wife and I have decided to simply build our own properties to rent or sell.  I've found a lot that fits our needs, but now I need to "walk the land".  The question for the BP community is: what should I look for when I visit the site?  

Also, I would gladly compensate more experienced developers to visit the site with me for input.  Thanks in advance for any feedback.
