I'm finding an agent to get me deals, I'm finding a property manager to advise me on the markets and what rents for what, where I want to avoid.

100% great advise and actually what I said.

I’ve had a previous lender advise me that it still indeed is on my record.

You don't need an agent to buy or sell land (I almost never use them), but depending on your level of comfort with the process, it might not hurt if you can find one who specializes in land transactions (hint: most agents deal with homes and dwellings, and these are not necessarily the most qualified people to advise you on vacant land transactions - as land deals have their own unique set of issues).2.

Pls advise.

Please be advised that we are working closely with State and Local Police to monitor and resolve this situation.

Toward the end of his lease he advised that he would be continuing his lease for another year but advised his girlfriend would also be moving in.

They will be able to advise on the plan requirements, potentially giving you something off the shelf from a previous project or referring you to an affordable draftsman.

Too many unknowns to advise here. 

I was advised to look over data found in city-data.com.
