Real estate development promises high returns. But behind the scenes, it’s a world full of hidden risks — especially for first-time investors.
Here are the most common barriers for those trying to enter development on their own:
Choosing the wrong land plot
Miscalculating project profitability
Lack of pre-concept planning
Delays in permits and approvals
Construction risks and budget overruns
Weak sales and poor market positioning
Risk #1 — The land looks good. Until it’s not.
You find a promising plot. Great location, decent price.Seems like a smart investment, right?
Not always.
The land price turns out too high compared to the expected sale price per m²
No geology or surveying was done — later you discover:
• groundwater issues or hidden underground utilities
• historical restrictions or archeological zones
• rocky or unstable soil requiring expensive foundations
The zoning regulations won’t allow the intended development
The result? Extra costs, lost time, and declining profitability — or no profits at all
