Which best describes your project today? *

We don’t have a clear project concept yet / I’m not sure.

We have a general idea of use (e.g., multifamily, industrial), but it’s not firm.

We have a specific use and rough program (unit count, SF, etc.).

We have a specific use, preliminary layout, and have discussed it with professionals.

Where are you in terms of zoning and entitlements for your intended use? *

We haven’t looked into zoning/entitlements yet / I’m not sure.

I know the zoning, but we haven’t mapped an entitlement path.

I’ve invested in real estate actively (own properties, flips, etc.)

We’ve identified an entitlement path and started early conversations.

We’re in an active entitlement process or already entitled for this use.

We don’t have a project budget yet / I’m not sure.

We have a rough total number only.

We have a line-item budget for major categories (land, hard, soft, contingency).

We have a detailed budget reviewed by one or more professionals (e.g., GC, QS).

How clear is your path and timeline from today to construction start? *

We don’t have a timeline or critical path yet / I’m not sure.

We have a rough sense of timing, but no milestones.

We have a simple schedule with key steps (entitlement, design, financing).

We have a staged timeline with key approvals, design milestones, and financing gates.

How clearly have you defined exit and repayment logic (what gets built and how capital gets out)? *

We haven’t defined an exit yet / I’m not sure.

We have a preferred exit, but no numbers around it.

We have at least one modeled exit scenario with rough values.

How well supported is your project by market data? *

We haven’t reviewed comps or market data yet / I’m not sure.

We’ve looked at some listings or anecdotal data.

We have basic rent/sales comps or a broker opinion supporting the concept.

We have written market research and/or multiple broker-backed data points.

Who is currently quarterbacking entitlement and development for this project? (copy) *

I am. / No lead yet. / I’m not sure who’s really in charge.

A broker, architect, or consultant is loosely leading parts of it.

We have a developer or partner leading, but they primarily represent their own interests.

We have (or want) a dedicated development manager / execution partner primarily representing the landowner.

Which best describes your relationships with key professionals (land use attorney, architect, civil, GC/CM)? *

We haven’t lined up any professionals yet / I’m not sure.

We’ve had informal conversations but no clear roles.

We have a short list and have scoped some work.

What agreements are currently in place related to the land and this project? *

I’m not sure / we may have an LOI, option, or PSA but I don’t fully understand it.

We’re in LOI/negotiation with a developer or buyer; terms are not clearly defined.

We have a JV or agreement where a developer is leading and we contribute land.

We have no binding agreement, or we have a structure where we keep control and can choose how to develop/capitalize.

How do you feel about bringing in outside equity that shares upside with you? *

haven’t really thought about outside equity yet / I’m not sure.

I’m cautious and would only do it with clear control and economics.

I’m open to GP/LP partners if the structure is fair and transparent.

I expect to work with GP/LP partners and want help structuring that.

How do you feel about using a loan secured by the land to fund early project costs? *

We haven’t really considered this yet / I’m not sure.

I might consider a small, conservative bridge if the exit is very clear.

I’m comfortable with a bridge loan if feasibility and exit are strong.

A land-backed bridge loan is already in place or definitely part of the plan.

Very roughly, how does the current land value compare to the total project cost you’re envisioning? *

I’m not sure how land value compares to total project cost.

Land is roughly 10–20% of total project cost.

Land is roughly 20–30% of total project cost.

Land is more than 30% of total project cost.

What best describes existing debt on the land today? *

I’m not sure how much debt is on the land.

Debt is probably more than 50% of what the land is worth.

I think it’s feasible, but the path and numbers aren’t clear enough.

The project seems feasible; I need a capital plan, structure, and execution.
