I'm looking at several properties, some of which are bare land, others of which have a single house on a larger plot that I'd like to subdivide and build on the new plot.Because development will be contingent on multiple permits and/or subdivisions being approved by the local jurisdiction, how can you make sure you don't buy the land and then end up with land you can't build on?

I had a fourth that was going to hire all subs to do projects, that one worked out poorly and got one house done in six month, and barely broke even.

It's not that wet now though...just barely damp.

You can also try lowering expenses, although that might barely make a difference.If data from Zillow is correct, current median listing price for a home in LA is about $749,000.

The bare minimum I've seen is $25k. 

I can barely understand what you eant in the first place.

Lately though some applicants are pretty concerned about being asked to leave after they barely get settled down.

Put an owner to that house and at bare minimum the property taxes are getting paid.

They can barely go outside to go for a walk, no parks close by, little green space.

I have a somewhat similar situation as Bill's and I am tying to get some ideas on my basic bare bones frame work.
