We have gathered one of the most extensive GIS data and
detailed color aerial database from a multitude of sources including Orlando,
FEMA, USGS, SJRWMD, SFWMD, NRCS, FDEP, FDOT, EPA, NWI and from Orange
County/Seminole County/Brevard County/Osceola County and property appraisers and
much more. We reprojected this data to a uniform UTM17 coordinate system that
allows us to access a wealth of information about a particular site with just a
click of a button. This saves us
time and you money.
We have also store this GIS information in Florida State

If you are looking for a site (parcel or parcels) to
develop for a specific type use or you have other specific requirements for a
particular site, we are uniquely suited to help you. The following information will break
down some of the specifics for location services.
The following is a breakdown of suitable site location
research abilities and associated fees for specific intended uses in Orange,
Brevard and Seminole Counties. For
other neighboring counties the fees are slightly higher. If you are looking for property to
develop in the Central Florida Orlando area, we highly recommend our
services. You will get a superior
level of site research at a fraction of the time or cost normally associated
with these services. Real estate agents may locate a site for you and they do
serve a purpose (and we do have a Real Estate person on board), but they don't
have the same perspective as a Professional Engineer which allows us to see
developability issues.
Finders fee of $2000 for properties valued at $500,000 or less, finders fee of $3,000 for properties valued at $500,000 to $1,000,000 and finders fee of $4,000 for properties valued at $1,000,000 to $5,000,000. Properties over this value will be handled on a case by case basis. Conceptual plan creation is a flat fee of $2,000 for properties up to 10 acres in size without wetlands or excessive easements or encumbrances that would hinder the properties development and $3,000 for properties from 10 - 20 acres in size without wetlands or excessive easements or encumbrances that would hinder the properties development. Larger properties will be handled on a case by case basis and fees will be tied to intended land use and complication of creating said plans.
Retainer fee of $1,000 per month per property (to be applied to the final amount at time of closing...i.e., the balance of fees would be due for finders fee and conceptual planning at closing date or within one week of said closing).
Environmental surveys or reports, geotechnical explorations and reports and regular survey fees are not included and may increase risk if not obtained. I can handle coordination of all the suggested surveys without additional charge.
Simple location survey using GPS (accurate to within 30 feet or less) and location of easy to access property corners can be done on a case by case basis by us but will not be signed or sealed by a PLS (Professional Land Surveyor). Cost for these services are minimal and are detailed on our website if you desire.
Pulling an existing Plat (if available) is included however in the conceptual planning fee and is adequate for an initial conceptual plan.
Conceptual planning and location of suitable properties does include reporting of known wetlands (as per NWI), location of known eagles nests (as shown by state and federal agencies) and other endangered species as the data is available. Also included is the identification of flood zones, soil types expected on site, expected range of groundwater elevations, existing ground contour elevations, USGS Quad sheet exhibit, high resolution color aerial of the site, Zoning map (with allowable uses), Existing Land Use map, Future Land Use map, jurisdiction map (including city/county/water management district), known conservation areas, drainage basins (including if the site is expected to have a positive outfall for stormwater drainage), and other available data in pdf, AutoCAD, jpeg ( jpg ), tif, xls, shp, doc, dbf or other formats as needed.
Viewing our map hopefully helps with your guidance. If you have any problems, please remember our phone number 407-928-7192.
