Shaun Draughn commercial is probably different then residential, but I’d get a rent roll, and expenses break down (with documentation), environmental survey, inspection, including plumbing, etc

On the other hand, my last investment doubled in value in under 5 years.There are many factors to investing in a property, but appreciation and profit (from rent) are two big components. 

Some lenders (emphasis on "some") will let that be your equity component for construction loans.

For example, you don't want to use hard money on cash flowing properties unless you have a plan to refinance it out with low interest long term money in the future.These are the four components of doing a deal: 1).

When you financing the build, you are responsible for all components of the build.

A couple lots have had turtle nests be relocated safely & in an environmentally friendly way which delayed permitting a month or so, but that is it so far. 

@Zach JonesAfter all that has been discussed, there are a few more important components of reaching into larger deals.

The professionals needed for development include lawyers, engineers including civil, geotechnical, environmental, and traffic, architects, title companies and surveyor.I may be telling you what you already know and I could go on and on but it would be easier to discuss one or two areas rather than explain all of them.

They make the homeowners feel better about their environmental impact.

We m got positive feedback from both the county and state dept. of environmental quality.
