Responsibilities:

  • Initiate the contract process, review all contract changes, oversee our attorney reviews and negotiations, identify major contractual risks (and their concurrent obligations), and ensure all our major deal point issues are addressed in each transaction.
  • Manage the land feasibility package creation process. Assemble the corporate land acquisition study book for each land deal and ensure that it is submitted at least two weeks prior to any earnest money "hard date".
  • Manage the zoning and permitting processes. Ensure that we get the best possible density and conditions from the process, ensure our contracts are linked to these results.
  • Manage our market knowledge and submarket analysis projects to ensure that we have current data (e.g., land prices, lot prices, road improvements, municipal requirements), needed to develop and refine our strategic land acquisition objectives.
