Development of Vacant Land: Unearthed!
ORRA Member Pricing: $10
Instructor: Linda Olson

"Under all is the land" is the opening code of the REALTOR® Code of Ethics. The concept applies to all real estate transactions. Quite often, REALTORS® that are not conducting transactions that involve development on a regular basis don't realize how many different facets of the industry they need to be knowledgeable about before diving in to assist a client. 

The purpose of this class is to:
•  "Unearth" the development process for vacant land or land structures undergoing redevelopment
• Discuss factors that can affect development, including land and its uses, laws that regulate land use
• Evaluation of site conditions
• And determination of the feasibility of a purposed new project

Knowledge of these things will allow you to assist your customer to successfully navigate land being redeveloped or a vacant land transactions, whether the purchase is for customers looking for land on which to build their dream home or for a client wanting to develop a whole new subdivision or retail establishment.

Linda Olson is a Realtor with D. Basile Real Estate, LLC in Melbourne, Florida. Linda specializes in all non-residential property types, especially vacant land throughout Brevard County.

Linda brings a unique perspective to the real estate field as she also has 20 plus years of experience as an environmental consultant. This allows her to offer specialized services regarding the intricacy of determining the developability of a property and to provide advice as to how to optimize a property's use in relation to environmental concerns. Linda also uses this expertise to assist Owners to set a competitive price that considers what a Buyer may need to do to develop the land. In addition, she helps Buyers to negotiate a better price on the purchase of land as she can assist them to determine the costs of improving the property such as completing environmental studies, assessing impacts, and providing mitigation.

During both Linda's environmental and real estate careers, for more than 10 years, she was actively involved with the local Home Builders and Contractors Association. The additional knowledge that she gained from this association and the contacts she has with builders, remodelers, and distributors of products gives her unique information and insight into "green" building techniques for improving a home's energy efficiency.
