LVE is the multi­-disciplined task of bringing undeveloped or underdeveloped real estate to a developable state. It requires the coordination of land planning, zoning, marketing and economic analysis, infrastructure planning and development, community relations and a variety of other simultaneous activities. While complex, great values may be achieved for the expenditure of comparatively little capital.

• Location

• Endangered Species
• Environmental Factors
• Geological & Soil Conditions
• Zoning

• Highest & Best Use Determination
• Land Use Concept
