Most people learn finance and relationships.
Nobody teaches the physical reality of land —
what permits cost, how long entitlements take,
and what kills projects before they start.
Until now.
Join developers and investors learning the logistics of land
You can't read what you're looking at. You're evaluating sites but don't know what the site plan, grading, or utility layout actually means — or what it will cost.
You're flying blind with consultants. You're hiring engineers, surveyors, and attorneys without knowing if the scope is right or if you're getting good advice.
Budget surprises are killing your deals. Projects are going over budget and over timeline — and you didn't see it coming because nobody explained the risk early enough.
"Most education in real estate stops at the deal. We start where most investors get burned — the land itself."
— David White, PE
New to Development
You're exploring commercial or residential real estate and want to understand the physical side — not just the finance. You need a foundation before you commit capital.
Active Investor
You're already doing deals but realize you don't fully understand what your engineers are telling you — or how to evaluate their work. You want to close the knowledge gap.
Civil Engineer
You know the technical side. Now you want to understand the developer's perspective, how projects are evaluated, and the business of land development.
Founder & Principal Engineer
David has spent 25 years as a licensed Professional Engineer working on land development projects across the Southeast — commercial sites, residential subdivisions, mixed-use, industrial, self-storage, fuel sites, and everything in between.
He founded a civil engineering firm in 2015 that has led the design of over $800 million in project value across 500+ jurisdictions throughout the Southeast.
He's not teaching theory. He's teaching what happens on real projects, what goes wrong, and how to protect yourself before you're too far in to walk away.
8 modules covering the full land development process — from raw land to construction documents.
As David records new lessons, they go straight into the community. You grow with it.
Ask questions, share deals, get feedback from people who are actually in the work.
Deep technical content for engineers who want the developer's perspective. Available separately.
Ask the licensed PE who's done hundreds of real projects. Get answers from people with skin in the game.
Practical tools you can apply to your next deal before you commit — to catch what kills projects early.
