Staff.

This course provides a broad overview of the public entitlement processes for real estate development, including land use & zoning law, entitlements, and subdivision regulation processes found in most U.S. cities and towns. The course provides a platform for understanding the real estate industry and the often conflicting forces that affect development. Students undertake a self-selected real estate development project, including site selection, planning, and complete a comprehensive entitlement due diligence. Student projects focus on real-world skills and require professional-level reports suitable for oral and written presentations.
