Debating which commercial site to list my property that's being listed for redevelopment
Listing two residential properties located in a residential/professional zone. The owner wants to sell them both together with the idea that a developer would build business offices, studios, etc, or perhaps get a variance and build a gas station or something else. 

What sites do you recommend? I live in New England. We also have NECPE here in New England, but I haven't tried that one (if anyone else is from this part of the country and wants to share your insights). 

Thanks.

Perhaps there are a few firms in your area who do this type of development of which you could reach out to directly.\n\nThe reason I expect the homeowner to be a PITA is because it takes a lot of time and money to petition a municipality for a zoning change, or a use variance, replatting and recording the property into one parcel, and getting all the pertinent permits that would be required to take two residential properties and develop a commercial property on them. Typically the only way the current homeowner would see the benefit of that in the sales price is if he/she did that work themselves prior to selling the property.
