Quote from @JD Martin: Nobody is going to build "starter" homes unless there are incentives that help absorb your fixed costs - developing lots, utility connections, grading & surveying, etc.

In working on construction loan financing, the lender informed me I'll need to unencumber that portion of the property (makes sense) before closing on the construction loan.I understand there to be two methods generally speaking: refinancing my mortgage and removing that portion of the property in the process OR attaining a partial release from the lender to remove that land.I *strongly* want to avoid refinancing as I have an amazing rate, but partial releases seem complex and also require a survey.

Surveys show that half of all vacationers are traveling with their pets.Whether or not you "allow" pets, your guests are bringing them anyway.

(Surveys, septic design approvals, etc.) 

maybe a 4 way split easier to sell 25 acres for less money.. as long as survey cost dont run a ton.

Some lenders use the lower of the actual rents (if rented) and the appraiser market rent survey to calculate the DSCR ratio.

As its a metes and bounds area, the best quote I’ve received to have it surveyed myself is $4K.

And IMO that has been decades in the making.I saw a recent survey of 4000 Gen Z and they said thay would need to earn 270k to feel financially successful.

They will do a Good title search that no liens or mortgage issues with the firemineral rights transfer, easements, a survey, type things need to be clear.glad you escaped the fire with your health is main thing

One thing I think I would do is either hire a professional market research company and/or get a local high school or college marketing class to do market research and surveys to see if there is interest and demand.
