Investing in developing countries is exciting but it's usually very hard and expensive to find financing for these projects.

The single family renovation is financed by a different lender than the larger development parcels.

Hopefully you did not pay too much for the dirt. 1 acre is optimal these days because of desired double to triple drive thru for QSR.It can become a problem because if they make the building smaller you get less rent but they do more sales.Example a QSR used to be 3,000 to 4,000 sq ft but now instead wants double drive thru's as not many go inside for fast food like pre-covid.If you get 1,000 a foot less at 30 a foot you just lost 30k NOI and now at 5 cap example paying all cash NNN once developed you have lost 600k value.It can fine as long as you do not overpay for the land.
