The last video was 2 years ago, are you guys still active on this channel?
Still active. Unfortunately things have been extremely busy, but we'll start posting more content this year. Thanks for checking in.
THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
$1000 dollars per foot, one mile would be over 5 million dollars. You must have meant $100
Good catch. Thanks for the correction.
Great job Bro
This industry sucks, especially in NJ. If you’re a civil engineer in land development, get out while you still can and go into transportation or working directly for a municipality, county, or state. Land development for private clients is all about tight budgets, low pay because the lowest bidder gets the project, high stress, insanely fast pace, long hours, being an expert in zoning, autocad civil 3d, grading, stormwater, utility design, and, you must be able to have excellent written and oral communication skills. Every project I’ve worked on in land development recently has been warehouses, which most towns don’t want, and high density housing. If the developer wants to make a last minute change, he won’t care how extensively it changes the design. He wants it done as fast as possible with spending the least amount of money possible while you also have other projects going on.
That's brutal. While it may not be as intense up in your neck of the woods, that is one thing all big home-builders and developers have in common, "GET IT DONE YESTERDAY!".
Thank you for the video
To develop a raw kabd for subdivision . Flat land
Wow, very good explanation. Do you have an average cost land development codt per acre for subdivision.
My future begins now! Looking to purchase a 8.2 acre parcel for building single family homes
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you sir
Love this video - thank you so much for sharing your expert knowledge!
God this is scary
Who does the feasibility analysis? Whats their title?
There's not a specific professional that you can call to do this. This is something that's done more internally, but it depends on the company's own personal skills and knowledge. But you can probably gather enough information by talking to real estate agents and looking at similar homes near your target area that have recently sold and at what price point. And also DOM (days on market), etc. In general, is their growth and demand where you plan on developing?
Put more videos man
I would suggest my civil friends to take a good look over the series. It is very good and knowledgeable for those who work under such work.
Thank you for the valuable advice and idea to work smart
thank you for your great vid. One question. in which phase do you deliver lots to homebuilders? after landscaping? or maybe after flat work? thank you in advance.
It varies. I have another video on this on my channel about the different lot conditions. If you're delivering lots as "FINISHED LOTS", then the lots are graded, utilities are installed and stubbed out to each lot, and the roads are paved. This way, the homebuilders can hit the ground running with vertical construction. You can also deliver the lots as "BLUE TOP", which means you're just rough grading the lots to it's final design elevation (and maybe roads to subgrade). Or you can even just take land through entitlements and still deliver that to a buyer.
Super helpful. Thank you!
GREAT VIDEO BRO!!!
So basically they have use beurocracy to take all the lower rungs off the developer ladder so only the big investment banks have the capital and paitience to get through the all the hidden processes?
Honestly, that's mainly what I see in Southern California. You need deep pockets to develop. Especially the larger projects. It's a long and expensive process.
Would you know the differences in developing for a mixed use zoning development
Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with mixed-use zoning development.
I just started working for a land development company and these video have been super helpful. Thanks!
Amazing
Love how technical you get into as opposed to the super high-level stuff others show that is too generic to be useful. Good job!
Thanks for the feedback. At the end of the day, I just made something that I wished I had to really sink my teeth into when I first started.
entitlements means getting approval from local government. I did see where is the meeting with government and neighbors to get approval.
You're correct. Part of that process of the getting approval from your city or county would be those townhall meetings with neighbors, etc.
I too appreciate this great content. It is invaluable. If you ever produce more of these, I would be interested in the financing of these steps, and hoops that lenders typically make developers go through in order to ensure the security of their loans
Thank you for the suggestion. I'll take that into consideration.
Great video, thanks
Im taking the IBC ( International Building Code ) test for permit tech for the office of buildings for my jurisdiction. This was a helpful visual video fir people like me who learns visually.
That's the best way to learn!
Greatly appreciate you taking the time to put these videos together to educate! So informative! :)
Question... what do you mean by "it doesn't get bought off by the utility companies?" Thank you :)
When you're done with construction, ultimately you'll walk away from the project and the utility companies/municipalities will take over the systems (i.e. water, sewer, storm drain, electrical, etc.). But before those utility companies officially take ownership of it, they want to inspect and ensure that everything has been installed correctly and per code before they take over. "Bought it off" is just another way of saying that they've approved and accepted the system.
Home run presentation...... AGAIN!!!
