Land Acquisition
The most expensive mistake in development is not overpaying for the right piece of land; it is paying anything for the wrong one.
A "perfect" site can be a financial trap, loaded with hidden utility gaps, zoning roadblocks, and environmental constraints that can kill a project. For a business owner, navigating this landscape without in-house expertise is a high-stakes gamble.
We provide the rigorous, independent due diligence needed to vet the opportunity and eliminate uncertainty before you are at the closing table. We are not brokers earning a commission; we are your advocates, providing a "go/no-go" analysis built on data.
Our land acquisition support includes:
- Fatal Flaw Analysis: We investigate the critical infrastructure required for your project—water, sewer, power, and data. We identify capacity issues, off-site improvement costs, and tap fees that are rarely disclosed in a real estate listing.
- Comprehensive Due Diligence: We manage the entire due diligence process, coordinating a team of surveyors, geotechnical engineers, and environmental consultants to uncover any subsurface, legal, or regulatory risks.
- Zoning & Entitlement Feasibility: We go beyond a simple zoning check. We analyze the political landscape, the true timeline for approvals, and the realistic probability of success for any needed variances or rezoning, providing you with a clear-eyed view of the path forward.
- Financial & Pro Forma Validation: We pressure-test the acquisition numbers against your project's financial model. We ensure the land cost, plus all known and hidden improvement costs, allows your project to meet its financial goals.
- Negotiation & Closing Support: We provide strategic support to your legal counsel, helping negotiate critical contract terms like due diligence periods, financing contingencies, and entitlement conditions that protect your capital and mitigate your risk.
We provide the discipline and experience to separate a viable opportunity from a costly mistake. We ensure the land you buy is the land you can actually build on.
