I already have land holdings near Everett that will certify out at 304 salable density bonus credits.To play this game, I get certified and then "clip off" the transferable development rights for sale to urban developers in the county, who can cash them in for an increase in dwelling unit density from an original 22 units/acre to 58 units, and building heights from 45' to 75'.

The quick short answer in my opinion is this: If you want growth stick to the small multis that you know and once the mortgages are paid off retire fully.

In the meantime, most of my capital is tied up and I am looking to be Super creative and I have absolutely the time and energy to cold call until i find someone that is game...even if i got to get a property in Alaska.
