Fwiw, I'm not in sales either. I'm in engineering. Developing relationships with clients/consultants/coworkers is key to keep work flowing your way... or increasing the amount of work flowing your way if advancement/growth is the goal.Quote:

Around here, it seems like people have stopped paying full retard for shit box condos and down valley nothing specials.
And Karen's gonna Karen. Read these public comments opposing an apartment complex https://grandco.app.box.com/s/is2k5s...r/211937030928

A relationship with the people driving the projects also helps in being able to properly define them; the less smoke you need to blow, the easier it becomes to get the specs right for the business case and budget (or to tell the client that they're asking for a two-comma project with a one-comma budget).Quote:

If only relationships could be built remotely. Nah.
"Placing an apartment complex in a subdivision surrounded by million-dollar homes on all sides would significantly decrease property values throughout our community."Quote:

These people are special. This isn't a rezone. It is in an Urban Growth Area, 1/4 mile from US Hwy 40, and served by a municipal water and sewer district.
They really perceive that Planning and Zoning exists to insulate them from any perceived negative effect of any development.
They are not afraid to come with classist boomer rage no matter how old they are.

I live between two million dollar homes (mine is definitely not) and across the street from apartments. The apartment neighbors are cool folks and the million dollar houses are still worth a million each or more. Commenter sounds like a cunt.
You only read one comment? You are missing the good stuff like calling apartment dealers "transients", the unslightlyness of a parking lot, suggestions to limit pets due to "their" pond being over run.
I really think they'd support an HOA covenant of any white people with a certain level of wealth. It's honestly been pretty eye opening and kinda gross.
Vacant lots make great neighborhoods but rhetoric is not something I would have expected around where I live.

It's certainly not easier. And during a time in their careers where they are learning everything, all the time, they don't need unnecessary impediments to learning. Informal, social, ruboff learning is diminished (though not entirely eliminated) by wfh... and that hits greenhorns hardest.Quote:

If you don't help your kids in HCOLA's they don't have a chance.
Eh. In this case the guys standards are just very high. He could get something for half that price, but just not built in the last 5 years. He said the cheaper options were crappy and he would rather just rent than own something crappy. I know his salary and he could just barely afford to buy my condo 15 mins from 2 different company offices, but with help from his GF, he could comfortably afford it... but its not in the most hip area, and it was built in 1988 with minimal updating so he would never consider something like that... even as a starter. This is in the Seattle metro area, which is a notorious HCOLA. Id argue that only a few areas legit price out most people (NYC/LA/SF) but many more require creative solutions like buying and then renting rooms for a while. That part of the american dream is changing, its not dead... IMO.Quote:

Dropping 100k on consultant fees prior to a preapp meeting for a 40 lot plat in AZ, along with the ensuing twitter tantrum screams inexperience to me. Reminds me of the time that one of my developer clients fought with the City over how many townhomes they could fit on the property (9 vs 13) and after a months long battle the developer won, and then promptly changed the name of the project to Thirteen Townhomes, just to rub it in the City's face.Quote:
