I am a land development planner out of Tucson, Arizona and in my experience the likelihood of getting a rezoning approved has a lot to do with the level of support from the jurisdiction and surrounding land owners.

I have been pumping up the credit card limits to fund a small investment/flip but the bigger developments we need to be in will require low 9 figures.So is there a way to fund my projects without private investors?

I do know landlords who do and some think the program is great and others complain endlessly about it but feel trapped because the property has a "section 8" reputation.

One of our reasons for looking more into developing is because finding residential real state at 70-80% of FMV is next to impossible.

Just curious for anyone that has done some development work, if there are any basic numbers to follow for bringing in electric and phone?

Zoning changes are virtually impossible around my area.The gigantic developers seem to be able to do it occassionally (but not always).

Don't ask on your first deal, develop a relationship and he will be more willing as deal after deal go down.

My assumption is that they purchased the building before the area was developed waiting to sell once all of the development was complet.

Then something happens and you’re unable to complete the orders on time and you really will damage your reputation.

You really need to develop a marketing team.I have around 40 people working for me in my marketing department.
