Don't use bandit signs, period.They look dirty, selfish pollute the city, ruins the image of the town, (how would you like it if 34 investors would put bandit signs with WE BUY HOUSES, all over your neighborhood.

There will have to be utilities, roads, landsaping, grading, sidewalks, streets, sewer lines, etc. put in, lots of engineering to do, possible environmental and soils testing, subdivision map costs, etc.

Do you have an Environmental Report and an Engineering Inspection Report ?

In my "former" life I was an environmental engineer and have a MS in Environmental Science.

We've been counter-offering back and forth for almost 2 weeks and finally have agreement, but before the deal formally goes under contract BofA wants me to sign-off on 21 pages worth of addendums:- a 17-page Real Estate Purchase addendum- a 1-page Buyer's Acknowledgement and Disclosure- a 2-page Water Damage, Toxic Mold & Environmental Disclosure, Release and Indemnification Agreement- and a 1-page Lead-Based Paint and Lead-Based Paint Hazards Disclosure, Acknowledgement and Disclosure.I've skimmed through it and it appears to be a lot of CYA type stuff, like there's not property condition disclosure, its being sold "as-is", buyer won't hold BofA accountable if problems with property arise at a later date, etc.

I'd check for code violations with city building & fire depts, maybe environmental issues.

environmental report (also costs money).

You may also want Phase I Environmental Site Assesssments (Phase I for short), depending on location and value.

Just a quick run down about myself, I'm a full time environmental engineer finally ready to start jumping into the game.

Are there any environmental issues with the land?
