I just wanted to say "Welcome to full time real estate and to the BP community.

I'm always looking for buyers anywhere, (In Whatcom, Snohomish, King County, Pierce counties or anywhere) interested in investing in a growing military community like Oak Harbor. 

I have done research and have learned a lot about investing, but I am so happy I found BiggerPockets so that I can connect/interact with this great community that I am sure I will learn a WHOLE LOT more from. 

It's good to know that there's a supportive community out there for new and seasoned investors.

Welcome to the community Carolyn

Glad you joined the BP community.

Hello BP community!

Back to the hypothetical 10 acres, if you want to create 20 lots on 10 acres that's zoned for one house per acre, then you likely have to go through the application phase with the county, planning department approval, public hearing, and town/county commission approval for the rezoning that differs from the Master Land Use Plan.

Usually you can see permit applications, taxes, value, sales history, etc., but it won't show you property manager info or violations.

I spoke to community development about this and they too have said there is nothing commercial about the property, although the comprehension plan allows it, but it would have be approved by the committee and neighborhood.
