I plan to use either my rental property or a piece of raw land I have paid for as collateral to bring it up to about 100K.

Given that it is an existing lot, I would assume they had the permit and everything ready, so that cuts your time quite a bit, normal ground up with raw land is around 10-12 months.

Currently we own two neighboring parcels; the one on which we live, and one adjacent which is raw, flat, street-front land, each about 1.3 acres. 

Hi Guys,I am looking at a deal in DFW TX, new construction (raw land right now) zoned multi family and allows up to 80 units (by right). 

But, they showed me the fact that raw sewage was pumped to the outside (no septic.) 

A $1B hospital renovation, tax advantages due to Opportunity Zone designation, and surrounded on 3 sides by Tremont, Ohio City, and Brooklyn...the area is a little raw now (C-?)

1) Want to speed up ISD/getting through zoning as quick as possible2) Want to refinance raw land with that I own in an LLC with a 61,200 hard money loan out3) Direct abutters are making a fuss over every little thing because it's a community that is displacing people through gentrification, what can I do to incentivize them?

I never take down land prior to getting entitlements in place to develop the property to its highest and best use.I  would not recommend purchasing any raw land unless it is really cheap or you can pay cash or finance without any pressure.

We have a BPO that puts the raw land at about $7000 and the existing house with a smaller parcel at $240,000.

The current project I am exploring is a 5 acre raw hillside view lot, the lot is in a built out established bread and butter neighborhood.
