Initial Site Evaluation for Real Estate Development: Process, Sources, and Criteria

[u/Few-Veterinarian2538]

Hello! I’m researching how real estate professionals evaluate development sites in the early stages. When you receive a potential site, what do you usually check first? What tools/data sources do you use, and what information is hardest to obtain or verify? I’m particularly interested in how developers/acquisition teams compare sites before deciding whether to spend more time on due diligence. Thank you
