Developing Land For Duplex and Four Plex

[Baron Hicklin]

HI all,

I am not sure if I am posting in the correct area, and if not please let me know. I am interested in doing research on developing land to put a number of duplexes and fourplexes on it. But I don't know where to start my research. I know I need to know about the characteristics of the land, water, septic tank, zoning, and a bunch of other things. If someone can please suggest, books I can read, places to research for information of things I need to know, I would be very grateful. This right now is only an idea, but who knows what it could lead too. Thank you much!
