Before comparing parcels

Look at the ground.
Ask for the records.

Examine past improvements and the site’s condition alongside the survey. Ask what the property records show about the parcel before treating an existing property as a straightforward redevelopment lot.

Your proposed project

Compare the site
with the work you intend.

Describe the use and the building.

Check the proposed building and use against the requirements for the actual address. A nearby large development does not establish what is possible on your lot or which reviews your plan would need.

Check boundaries, access and services.

Request the survey and available property documents. Ask where the parcel ends, how it can be accessed and whether easements or restrictions affect your plan. Find out what records describe water, wastewater, electricity and other connections; nearby services do not establish a connection to this lot.

Investigate the land and any earlier use.

Ask for available site, inspection and environmental records. Discuss the ground, drainage, existing improvements and past activities with qualified advisers. Vacant land and a redevelopment property can raise different questions; neither description proves that the site is ready for construction.

Keep the purchase budget separate from project costs.

Compare the land price with the survey, investigations, design, financing, site work, utility connections and construction your plan may require. Review the actual records and transaction terms with your lender and advisers rather than relying on an estimated return or an assumed approval.
