Talking to Planning, Building & Safety and Public Works at the city.  Also, engage either an architect or civil engineer, or both.  Good luck!

If you are asking questions like this, you probably shouln't be wholesaling and tying up properties unless you are working hand-in-hand with a very experienced wholesaler.  There is a ton of legislation in the various states coming down to do everything they can to make wholesaling illegal or at least a lot more transparent and only done by people who are licensed and know what they are doing.  Too many amateurs are screwing things up for everyone.  I beg you to work with someone who knows what they are doing, so that you don't mess with the sellers life. And when I say work with, I don't mean just posting a question in a forum.

I've wholesaled 35 deals in Texas, and in all regions (East, West, Central, North, South) so I could be on your list of folks to talk to.

Hi Junaid, let's connect! I'm a land broker from Southern California, and I'm starting to help a group in Texas who has a unique business plan.

The submarket known as the "Inland Empire" in Southern California is pretty strong.  If you want to discuss, let me know.  I'm a land broker.

There are good entitlement consultants in LA who you could maybe pick their brain and they may give you some tips.

I think checking with the city to make sure they are okay with the product from a code standpoint, would be the most important thing.

I would try to network with Colorado area investors.  There should be plenty.  Either go to local real estate oriented meet-ups or post in FB groups that are for real estate in different Colorado markets. Maybe even ask your lender if they know someone you could partner with.

Makes sense, if you allow the seller to have logging rights post-closing.

Yes, probably 50/50 to start and then once you have a strong track record with them, you may have the leverage to try to get a higher percentage on your end since technically what you're doing is more time intensive than what they are doing (cutting a check). And you'll have the ability to shop around with money partners especially once you have a few homes to show that you've built.
