Not advertising a deal, just trying to understand what “market” looks like.Hypothetical (but based on a real situation):- Location: Central Los Angeles, Jefferson Park–type area- Asset: Existing 4-unit multifamily on a single parcel- Context: Within walking distance (~0.5 miles) of an E Line / K Line rail station, so it appears to fall into a transit-oriented development (TOD) pocket that should benefit from SB 79 upzoning (higher minimum density / height / FAR if standards are met)- Ownership: Held in a family trust tied to a probate / conservatorship, with a court-supervised mandate to (a) preserve the asset and (b) use it to support an elderly beneficiaryThe family side can realistically contribute **land only**; they don’t have the balance sheet or cash to run a full entitlement + construction process.

Further more after listening to so many different investors I'm considering by land and building from the ground up, are there any mentors on this forum that help me out with this process?

Land flipping can be great , Buy a big parcel and subdivide it .

If the builder who wants the land is "ready to go", why doesn't he just buy it and pay you an assignment fee?

Agricultural land, zoned agricultural/residential.

The investor buyer is purchasing the property from the Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA).As part of the closing, DLBA is requiring that the lender execute the attached Subordination Agreement.I don't love everything I'm reading, but I'm curious to see if others have gone through this.How did you assess the risk to the lender in this situation?

I’m wanting to get into purchasing land to develop and/or build units to rent/sell.

Groups that move quickly on large land plays usually include experienced land developers, family offices, private equity real estate shops, or institutional-leaning partners who already have dry powder and a track record with entitlement risk.

There’s no universal percentage adjustment for land size because appraisers don’t treat land value as linear, it’s market-sensitive.

You can’t buy the land before the exchange because you need to do the exchange for the land and/or building.
