In most of Raleigh city limits specifically, the lack of room to build new construction developments has stirred the folks in zoning.

Any investor or developer buy raw land lot (zoning code G) and go through the process with the city to convert to commercial use?

There aren’t many residential development companies operating at this level, which reduces competition and risk.

Would real estate prices in certain regions rise rapidly due to demand from both local and international buyers? 

Definitely focusing on offmarket or even on market multifamily homes (minimum 4 units). started off in real estate development last 2 years but the paydays are brutal building then waiting to sell.So now looking to switch up strategies to purchase cashflowing properties and then get back to ground up construction or even possible fix and flips. 

I am a 23 year old who recently graduated from college with a business degree focusing on real estate finance and development.

I had hear the island is massively lacking in hotels so it makes sense there are incentives for developers. 

Shortly after the crash my tenants learned that condo developers were renting out luxury apartments in the area for around the same rents I was charging so I was forced to lower rents. 1200/apt 2 1050/apt3. 

Strong regional/PE owned tenants.

Here, we got a ton in the hood, which there is no real demand for anything to be developed, so these buildings are generally worth very very little.
