The purchase agreement should layout a time frame to complete some of these "due diligence" items.You will need a boundary survey and title commitment to verify there are no liens or encumberances on the property.You will want to hire a geotechnical engineer to verify the soil is suitable for building an apartment building.You will need an environmental engineer to make sure there are no contaminants (asbestos, mercury, lead, etc.) on the site, as well as wetlands and/or endagered speices.If you need to rezone the property we may want to consult an attorney and/or civil engineer to help with that.Depending on how many units you intend to build the city may require a traffic study be completed to determine the impacts to the streets and intersections.This is typically how we start a new site and it is a very general list of items.

I know it will continue to grow because it brings so many functionalities that other sites don’t have.

Adding a boatload of new programs do not cut spending, but the Caped Crusaders of the Beltway haven’t figured that out.

I hope we don’t run out of ink.

When you define your process and commit to it for an extended period of time, the results take care of themselves.”Hal ElrodI don't agree with (1) pessimism being helpful for development (2) setting goals that permit cheating and compromising (3) not expanding goals as you grow and (4) that stretching yourself and failing is a bad thing...but do I agree that staking your identity on daily self-improvement is the right path.
