As @Karen Margrave stated zoning, environmental and regulatory issues make it difficult for the newbie.Some zoning is anti-development. 

Their regulatory role is mainly one of representation in the Provincial Commission constituted in every Chamber of Commerce.

Land is pretty much the same, You need to develop a market, the use, come in at a cost effective development to sell to a developer.Changing use begins with zoning changes, that is not just a local regulatory process but political as well.

Like maybe a DETAILED description of your company, your role, your regulatory compliance system, and your deal structure.

Baltimore continues its work in rehabilitating our underground sewer infrastructure as required by a federal/state Consent Decree.Wastewater projects include regulatory driven Enhanced Nutrient Removal at the Back River and Patapsco Wastewater Treatment Plants, numerous upgrades at Back River, and the Back River Headworks project that will allow us to eliminate more than 80 percent of the sewage overflow volume.Adoption of the new rates and rate structure would enable the Baltimore City Department of Public Works to continue moving forward on these many vital projects.

Because they aren't in the business of lending and don't fall under the regulatory guidelines to charge such other fees!

The regulatory issues are thicker than almost any industry, dealing in dirt is a cake walk compared to finance.

If you've done any research on Blue Moon Financial based out of Denver Colorado, then that would give you some indication as to how Pinnacle perhaps should have been set up to do business from a regulatory standpoint.Regards,justanotherinvestor.

Also, I can be a sounding board for legal and regulatory issues. 

To avoid undermining the democratization of real estate ownership, a combination of technological solutions (smart contracts, decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), and regulatory frameworks that ensure a level playing field for all participants) would be necessary.However, I don’t think even the most restrictive of regulations could stop the concentration of ownership by large entities.
