@Frank Fan, Generally contributions of property into an entity for membership interest do not create a taxable event.  

Like insurance, regulatory fees, memberships, registration, etc.Thanks!

Cost for the property associated with developing the land before construction will vary based on grading, sewer, electrical, roads, surveying depending on the location of the land, soil testing, etc...

I attend most of the AZREIA subgroups and they're definately worth the membership.  

@Michael Newman,I use these sources:current T12 & rent roll (if available)comparable rents from broker's OM packagecomparable rents from neighboring properties (MLS, rentometer.com, umovefree.com, calling to the property)expenses provided by management companies that have similar properties under managementexpenses (ranges) from NAA survey - usually outdated but give a 10000 ft picture and helps establishing some baselines.

@Derek Caffe Aside from infrastructure , mechanicals , physical inspections , be sure to review the zoning/permitted uses and what you will need to bring to current standards if you are modifying it along with a survey and phase 1 inspection.
