My observation is that in our market, very prime development sites will sell for $40 million per acre, once assembled  (priced off their potential for condos, at $1000 per sf retail, $200 per buildable sf for the site) , but smaller properties with the right zoning sell for maybe half that figure (e.g

The syllabus you published has the allure of "no money down" deals running though it:  "How to Structure No Money Down Transactions", 'Myths and truths about no money down purchases", etc.Allow me to pass along one truth about "No money down" deals:  they are rare (particularly in Canada) and you will need experience to successfully sell yourself as capable in such a transaction.IMHO, such mentoring/coaching for cash offers are generally over-priced and will provide you with nothing you cannot learn on your own with a little hard work: reading, asking questions in forums such as B, and offering your skills or services to a local seasoned investor (find by word of mouth) in exchange for being able to observe and, eventually, participate in a deal.

The important information is the public notice, which is often memorialized in a memo rather than the actual lease.An independent, third-party Observer, like an attorney closing a real estate transaction, will generally not be able to see anything other than recorded information.

Having lived here since 1994, through two substantial downturns, I have observed a stability and resilience to this region's housing that is really pretty amazing. 

@Nate Wilson - A few observations about your numbers; especially with regard to your description of the property being "kind of in the ghetto" (I think "D location" when I read that):-W/S: This seems low for a 7-unit.

What I do/have done is observe what small towns and counties are doing in reaction to the state incentives, which may or may not lead me to potentially approach these communities in developing their plans.

I am observer, considering this product for future projects

That was not an observation of overall market statistics.
