This is part of a larger trend of waterfront developments happening such as the Potomac River Generating Station turning into a 2.5 million square foot mixed-use community, the Montgomery Center turning into 327 new apartments, 25,000 square feet of retail, and 13,000 square feet of arts and cultural center starting July of 2024,This puts Robinson Terminal North as the next big project developers are eyeing, with Rooney Property groups announcing their plans to redevelop the decade-long abandoned warehouse space into a 600,000 square feet multifamily, retail, and thriving park area by 2025 following the completion of Hazel Waterfront Tunnel at the site.This new development, which received approval just a little over a month ago, has had many delayed development plans due to concerns about environmental hazards, which have now all been cleared upSources:Robinson North plan advances amid environmental concernsAlexandria Waterfront Small Area Plan March 2024Potomac River Generating StationSwimmable Potomac River CampaignMontgomery Center Redevelopment ApprovedAlexRenew completes two-mile long, 100-foot deep tunnelAlexandria City West, Landmark Mall Redevelopment (2028)Alexandria's Landmark Mall, which at a time was a thriving 52-acre strip mall that was a major attraction in West Alexandria, has long been an eye soar and swath of unused space.

If you’re in it for cash flow, you’ll likely find it difficult to find a deal that will pencil out.Besides, like @Jason Taken said, hundreds of thousands of new units have come online post-pandemic, so there’s a lot of new builds at the moment.

Louis, Memphis, and Birmingham offer a good balance of affordability and rental demand, while online platforms, auctions, and networking with local agents can help you find undervalued properties.

This may be because (1) until recently interest rates were trending lower so if the lender is getting a higher rate on subject note than he can obtain on new note there’s no monetary incentive to call the note (2) in the past technology did not exist to identify the property transfers (ten years ago county recording docs were not online) and (3) the lenders rather collect payments than own property.  

My objective is to buy about an acre of land, that is already leveled, access is being done, and utilities are going to be 5 feet from the property; and then build 3-4 shell retail spots on my plot, owner occupy one of them with a business and lease out the others.I am meeting with a developer this weekend, but have some wrong numbers regarding the average cost of building a shell space.
