Hi all,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?

Hi Dennis, we’ve helped some investors recently tap equity for down payments and portfolio expansion.

How does one acquire financing for a development project when I am a brand new developer? I don't have any developer friends to be on the LLC with me. I want to help with low-income housing in my community that I know...

Sometimes deciding on which route to take is the hardest part when investors first get started. 

As a real estate investor I am always curious about lending trends/debt trends in different sectors.  

Also, you could consider investing in a larger syndicated deal with investors that have proven track records. 

The purpose of my entity is to club together several investors and make a singular, passive investment in a commercial real estate fund (the fund is organized as a Limited Partnership). 

Hi there,I am looking to get into MHP investing, I have saved up a quite a bit of funds from selling houses.Is there anybody (preferably in SoCal, but not a big deal) that is in the MHP space, either a broker, or an investor, that can help provide some guidance & would be interested to connect?

Can you use a  private investor and use a  JV?
