Buying land and building a multi-family home on it

[Demetri Wilright]

I'm new to real estate and saw something that peaked my interest, buy land and then building a property.  

Because I have a lack of familiarity of it what would be the best ways to evaluate a good deal for land?  Additionally what are some of the concerns you would have, such as permits, contractors, and more?  

Lastly would recommend partnering with someone more experience for your first deal like this or trying it on your own?
