Kitchens, bathrooms, plumbing and electrical is already set up and you just have to have the tradesman do the hookups, theoretically. to be honest my advice is to sell the lots you own and buy new. most lenders won't consider your basis in the land as equity, there Needs to be a new transaction created. at least from all the lenders I've seen. we talk to land owners every day in columbus that own land but it's unentitled and doesn't have any transaction recorded so the equity contribution that you are given credit for is vague. so if you sell your lots and 1031 into another one, in my opinion it's the best of both worlds. if you can'ts sell them, entitle them to get higher values and then 1031. talk to a zoning attorney.
