I am working on developing raw land.

Since you don't have a loan on these properties you're raw cash flow on a monthly basis will be higher, however you're return on your money (cash on cash return, or how hard your money is working for you) will be much lower.

Lots of risk in raw land and development. 

Due to the risk (raw ground and new construction) and duration of the project, I would bet the farm that this project, would almost never, if ever be funded by hard money stance.

@Jasmine Russell That’s a tricky one lol the real answer is it depends(annoying I know)… When I first got started I had 0 experience but had done a ton of research, I still lost 100k on my first deal (lol) but I used that painful lesson on my pitches to tell future partners what I learned and didn’t give upit was also a raw land permitting play and I payed back the investor every penny I owed which helped my brand- Now, for those that know me I don’t need to go over my portfolio, what I’ve done etc because my reputation precedes me however, when I’m in a scramble and need funding for a deal and advertising it to the world and talking to strangers I’m absolutely going over my track record so they feel comfortable that I know what I’m doing and if I don’t specialize in a particular niche I get someone on my team and involved in the deal who’s and expert there and have them on the calls or at the very least their website or somethingI definitely am a fan of fake it till you make it but if you’re the one putting capital into a deal maker, check, double check and triple check everything they tell you and do your own DD

The following are a few that comes to mind:(1) Holding cost/s to fix these properties far outweigh the profit the company was going to make after rehab.(2) The turnaround time to fix these properties is untenable due to the shortage of labor costs.(3) The inflated acquisition price, coupled with an extensive long lead time of raw material have exasperated the new supply of new housing inventory.(4) Institutional investors are selling/bailing because of the sentiment of https://tinyurl.com/Shoeshineboyindicator.(5) And last but not least, the AI algorithm has taken into account the above parameters and predicted a bearish outlook for the subject housing market segment.With all of the above in play, what?

Hello BP Community,I know who to talk to find homes, however I'm unsure about who to speak to about buying raw land (10+ acres).

I am in the process of exploring the raw land/developable land buy and sell side of things.I am wondering if anyone would have a referral for a real estate lawyer who is fluent in seller financing/ The SAFE Act, and Dodd Frank regulations?

To make a long story short I'm currently working on developing 13 units in the city of Lake Elsinore, CA and while going through the process of developing raw land into multifamily housing there's going to be a ton of people you come in contact with the are essential to the development process.

So a move from structure to raw land is fine as long as you're intending to hold that land for productive use.
