I actually interned for a company in Iowa City that did real estate, property management, new home construction and development.

I'm new to Padsplit as well and I don't own one yet and looking into develop my own. 

Hi all, I wanted to get some comments and thoughts about a proposed deal. I was approached to help buy land that has been zoned for 34 townhomes at $2.7M (would be me and a couple of investors). The land is in a good ...

Should I go ahead and develop the land entirely and risk losing that money? 

BP Community, I’m reaching out because my 13-year-old son has developed a huge interest in real estate, and I’m not sure how to guide him. 

@Nicholas L.What Nicholas said.I would also develop a list of buyers and what their buy boxes are.    

Networking in various real estate associations to develop DEEP relationships is part of this program.2.

@Jordan Sachs This is 100% a state law issue... developed through court cases over time.

You might still make some money...or you might loose just a little while you learn....but I think chances are unless you totally mess things up or every part of the deal goes wrong, you end up with most of your money back....AND you learn and develop some relationships.

I would assume that you'd just simply sell each individual lot to the developer at a set lot price such that your cost to purchase the raw land and improve it to buildable lots was worth the proposed profit per lot.
