There are some great areas to invest and some up and coming areas. 

Most typically you'd hear this term in commercial leasing where the tenant reconfigures an office space or builds out a retail store/restaurant space.

I've got several investor clients here in the Indianapolis area looking/selling similar properties to what you described.

I’m not out to waste anyone’s time, and I realize that’s probably about right for an hour of an attorney’s time in my area, but I’m just looking for a bit more info on the attorney’s background to see if it’s a good fit.

I’m a new investor looking in the suburbs of New York City so I will be following this post.

If you're not familiar, Waukegan isn't the nicest area.

@Ben Van Gorp is there a meet up local to your area you can attend?

Hi Noah, I was born and raised in the Clevealnd area and went to college here.

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?

I didn't use any tools other than the MLS comps I have plus knowledge of the area from living here for 30 years.
