Ashley,

Kevin is correct in stating to NOT buy land unless you know what you can or cannot build on it. It is best to obtain an Option Agreement on the land and NOT a Purchase and Sell Agreement. An Option allows you an opportunity to do your due diligence which includes having a Market Analysis conducted  in order to find out the highest and best land use, which I mentioned previously. Once the Market Analysis or BPO is completed you will be able to determine if the project is feasible-  and if it is, then you and your Project team can complete the Predevelopment Phase that will include architectural drawings, site plan, elevations, construction estimates, soils and environmental testing, just to  list a few.
