水边的话会有code to regulate the boundary of building limit, 比如wetland分级，最少要75 feet，多至200ft. 如果湖边就是shoreline protection regulation to find the buffer. zoning requirement 网上看zonging map即可，但是在水边大约要subjects to regulations identified in local shoreline master plan.
需要找consulting company 去与市政打交道。 可以自己到市政问一下，认为有戏可以下offer that subjects to the Feasibility Study - say, 6-month long. During the period you can hire a development company to conduct the conceptual plan, file a pre-application meeting (while submit the conceptual plan so the City staff can comment and bring all the detailed requirements during the meeting). Based on the comments from the meeting with City Staff, you revise the conceptual plan and see if the land can still afford 50-unit developments. Your engineer will provide a quick & rough cost estimates on land, permitting, utilities & roads, survey & recording - that gives you the cost per lot. Or you may talk back with the seller to re-negotiate the price (据说在地产还不是大热的时候买家还可以与卖家讨价还价的）. Sounds like a SEPA process inevitable in order to obtain the "preliminary" approval. 好项目啊，流口水ing， 我们这里要天价了。
现在房价高，又不能赶人，做出租双重风险，有没有人在屯地（没人贷款给你。。。），以后自己一块一块地割了卖。
一块地可以盖50家的小区，有500尺靠水边可以建共用的码头。第一流的水景。
若算计错误，五十户只能分出十户，到时发现饼大嘴小吞不下，岂不扼腕叹息。
另外，风景好也要近城镇才容易吸引买家建长住居所，只能建度假屋的地价会打折扣。

搞好了，卖家经纪是中国人，估计卖家也是中国人。这财发得。搞好了是说跟政府的许可啥的，这政府总比坏垃圾租客好沟通。
