How do you calculate real estate development costs?

• <div><p>You should always calculate real estate development costs on a case-by-case basis, so there’s no specific formula to estimate your total. You should speak with a local construction manager to see what you’ll need to do in terms of clearing and leveling the land, connecting utilities, and pulling permits for construction. A professional will be able to get you an accurate estimate for land development. </p></div>

Q: What information can I find in a land survey report?

• <div><p>Land survey reports have a boatload of information relevant to several scenarios. Here are the types of information contained with a survey, though it depends on your chosen type of land survey. Exact boundaries and dimensions of a given property General topography, including both natural and artificial landmarks Location of utility fixtures, like water mains Confirmation of any easements or encroachments on a piece of property Assessment of land elevation to buy flood insurance Updated information to add to a pre-existing property map</p></div>

Q: How often should land surveys be conducted?

• <div><p>Before property transactions or major improvements to ensure accuracy.</p></div>

Q: How do you build a road on a slope?

• <div><p>Building a road on a slope requires careful planning and will normally require a drainage system underneath to prevent flooding and damage to the road over time. Your professional may lengthen your road to create switchbacks if the slope directly to your home is too steep, as there are regulations for maximum road slope. The drainage system will help prevent runoff from the higher side of the slope from damaging the asphalt or concrete. Keep in mind that building a road on a slope isn&rsquo;t a good DIY project, as a lot can go wrong.</p></div>

Q: Why hire a professional land surveyor?

• <div><p>A professional land surveyor ensures accurate property boundaries and prevent legal disputes.</p></div>

How to evaluate? Don't know. Wouldn't know if it was a great appraisal or not so great. Don't have the report and even if I did, I wouldn't know other than what the appraiser told me. Always try to be fair with these surveys but the questions are unanswerable, i.e., would you recommend? ...

It was "close-to-an-emergency" call. The rat came in when the house door was open, and stayed for two days. Not even with a reservation. This morning, we heard it in the bathroom, closed the door, and looked for a person to deal with it (in any way possible). We called Pied Piper after looking...
