I am feeling confused where should I buy the land (urban or rural area).What are the criteria I should look for before buying a land to avoid it from becoming a white elephant.

We are currently raising $2 million where the CoC is 18% with moderate leverage in an urban market, but the portals are only interested in multifamily and retail where the leases are more secure and long-term.

My initial interest is urban planning, but I also like changing the face of distressed communities as well. 

-Matthew 28:1This verse puts Sabbath a day before the resurrection, and that’s how I determined Sabbath is onSaturday.Something has happened in our society today, however, that has led many people away from celebrating Sabbath on Saturday.

Would prefer to be in Brevard area, but sometimes you have to expand your geographic parameters to find the best opportunities...good thing is that unlike most urban areas...just about anywhere from Highlands to Mt.

@Christie Duffy  Very much depends on the end product quality level.... as @Jim Adrian mentioned, $125 per SF has been a base number we've used for new construction though my experience is in the burbs, not urban Hoboken.

The MLS deals I go after are high density urban development in Seattle.

Our houses are not currently in east campus, I have a concentration right by Columbia college and another handful+ in the western urban area. 

The book makes you think outside of what Society has taught us.

I am very interested to venture into Real estate and learn to  see what's in stored for me and what I can give back to society.
