Developer Site Sourcing in North Mississippi
Site sourcing is a research and outreach function. It starts with a written acquisition requirement and ends with landowner conversations that would not otherwise happen.

Step 1: write the requirement
Acreage range, target corridors or counties, utility requirements, minimum frontage, topography tolerance, entitlement appetite, price band, and timeline. A vague requirement produces vague results; a specific one can be worked systematically.
Step 2: screen the map before the phone
Parcel data, aerials, county utility information and drive-throughs narrow a corridor to a short list of candidate tracts. Most of the work happens before any owner is contacted.
Step 3: owner outreach
Many suitable tracts in this region are long-held family land that has never been listed. Outreach is a conversation about whether the family has considered selling, on what terms, and in what timeframe — not a pressure exercise.
Step 4: structure and diligence
Options, phased takedowns and entitlement contingencies are often what make a deal possible. Diligence then covers survey, title, utility verification, environmental screening and preliminary layout.
