John Mendoza · Realty Executives Associates

East Tennessee land, development & investment property

I help builders and investors evaluate the deal before they commit — zoning, utilities, site constraints, rental potential, and the numbers behind it.

    Most of my clients are evaluating more than a house

    They're looking at acreage, a development site, a cabin investment, or a property with unanswered zoning and utility questions. I help work through those questions early, before they become expensive surprises.

    That means pulling the certificate of occupancy before anyone gets attached to a bunk count, calling the planning office instead of guessing at a zoning designation, and finding out whether a parcel can actually get sewer — or needs a septic permit — while there's still time to walk away.

    I work with builders, developers and private investors as well as buyers and sellers, and I stay involved past the closing table when a project runs into construction.

    East Tennessee markets I know

    Three counties, and the rules change at every line. What a parcel can be used for — and what it can legally sleep — depends on which side of a city limit it sits on.
