I had done many projects in the Metro Area of San Antonio, but I had always kept within certain parameters.

@Peter TrifanI agree with @Gino Barbaro, the more insurance contacts you have, the better.Last time I got insurance quotes, I reached out to the main brokers in the area and the local lenders to see who they recommended.

Yes, the bid you got is definitely high, at least compared to what I typically pay in my area. 

Hi all,I recently posted about this topic and unfortunately did not receive any responses.I have recently established my land acquisition business with the goal to purchase parcels of land, either within data center opportunity zones or areas with the potential to allow for data center development, rezone the property with submitted plans, then sell to developers ‘shovel-ready’ within the various jurisdictions of the Commonwealth of Virginia.I understand there are multiple mechanisms that come into play including obtaining financing (partnering with an experienced investor), utilizing land-use attorneys, land surveying and engineering firms, appraisers, as well as approval from local planning commissions, board of supervisors, etc.Would there be any investors who are currently active in this niche?

Take the time to Educate yourself on the market and surrounding areas.

We don’t know any PMCs to recommend in the area mentioned, but since selecting the wrong PMC is usually more harmful than selecting a bad tenant, you might want to read our series about “How to Screen a PMC Better than a Tenant”:https://www.biggerpockets.com/member-blogs/3094/91877-how-to-screen-a-pmc-better-than-a-tenant-part-1-services-and-processesWe recommend you get management contracts from several PMCs and compare the services they cover and, more importantly, what they each DO NOT cover.

Thank you for your service @Audric Ma VA loans are a wonderful way to get started but you might have to have the two years of W2 under your belt.

This property is located in Roseville, California.Hey Sam, I'm an agent and investor in the greater Sacramento area.

However, I'm finding that a lot of these are older townhomes in areas that I don't prefer living in. 

I have my area chosen.
