Site Evaluation and Due Diligence
Land development due diligence services encompass a comprehensive evaluation of all factors influencing a project's feasibility and success. This includes a wide variety of considerations, including detailed reviews of title reports to confirm property ownership and identify any encumbrances, analysis of geotechnical reports to assess soil conditions and structural suitability, and examination of flood and wildfire maps to evaluate environmental risks. Beyond technical assessments, these services also involve proactive engagement with relevant agencies and stakeholders to evaluate the likelihood of necessary approvals, coordinate utility provision, and address infrastructure requirements critical to the project's long-term viability. This integrated approach ensures informed decision-making and mitigates potential obstacles throughout the development process.

Project Management and Advocacy
Among the services offered, we provide comprehensive shepherding of applications through the entire approval process. This involves close coordination with both staff and engineers to ensure all technical and procedural requirements are met. Part of our role includes a thorough evaluation of the validity of comments submitted by municipalities, ensuring that concerns are appropriately addressed or challenged when necessary. Additionally, we carefully assess and clearly communicate any potential financial and timing impacts that may result from conditions imposed during the approval process.
This service segment also encompasses robust public engagement and advocacy efforts. We actively engage with neighboring stakeholders to foster positive relationships and address concerns early in the process. Simultaneously, we advocate effectively on behalf of our clients with key decision makers, including planning commissions and city councils, to facilitate a smooth and informed approval outcome.
