What land issue caught you completely off guard?

I work with property research and land analysis, and I’m curious what investors here have run into that wasn’t obvious when they first looked at a property.

Things like floodplain issues, wetlands, access problems, unexpected terrain, drainage, neighboring land uses, utility limitations, zoning, etc.

What’s something you wish you had known before buying a parcel?
