There is some element of timing when getting pricing. 

Fees for new construction , between capitol connections , impact fees , environmental fees , engineering fees , etc  you CANT build AFFORDABLE housing .   

The responses from some Real Estate “professionals” in this thread explains why real estate agents and representatives wear the badge of honor of being nosey, careless, borderline illegal and non-compliant with the most basic regulations and elemental  ethics.

I would be reluctant if it were a gas station or other environmentally challenged property though). 

Changing the tractor's oil in the driveway was another favorite: keeps the dust down in the summer.The developer risk is if that solid ever gets tested (phase one or phase two environmental study) you may have to dispose of it as toxic waste, which is super expensive.

For example, I’m doing three side by side duplexes and it’s costing me $135 psf, but I had to spend an extra $10k per foundation because of bad soil, and the smaller the property the higher the cost psfI’m working on a 28 unit with elevator, demo required, green roof, and it’ll cost me around the same psf as the duplexes.I’m doing three side by side triplexes which are full renovations, basement digout, all new facades, and that’s costing me about $106 psf for construction Non of these numbers include architecture, geotech, MEPS, environmental, utility plan, or finance costs

I look forward to learning from you all as I strive to master this element of real estate.  

These elements show the overall economic health of an area, which directly impacts real estate demand.

About 25 years ago I purchased an auto repair facility out of bankruptcy court that had an environmental problem.  

Great show but can add the wrong elements to a situation too-Lol.
