Land Entitlement: The Overlooked Stage Creating the Highest Returns in Development

Описание: Pennsylvania is facing a serious housing shortage. Data estimates the state has a shortfall of more than 105,000 housing units. The Philadelphia market is among the nation’s most severely undersupplied in approved lot inventory. The biggest bottleneck in creating new housing isn’t construction; it’s entitled land—land that has been fully approved for new construction. Before a single shovel hits the ground, land must pass through a complex process of approvals, permitting, engineering, and design that can take two to three years on average to complete. This stage of development quietly drives the value behind every new housing project, and it’s where experienced operators can unlock substantial upside without taking on construction, debt, or ownership risk.

Join GSP REI and our affiliate land development company, Hallowfield Development, as we break down how the Hallowfield Land Entitlement Fund I, LLC strategically controls and entitles residential infill land across high-demand markets in Pennsylvania and sells the entitled land to national homebuilders. This educational session will show investors how to understand, evaluate, and capitalize on this critical stage of the housing supply chain while maintaining a disciplined, risk-managed approach.

Here’s what you’ll learn:
• What land entitlement is and why it’s the most overlooked source of value creation in real estate development
• How the entitlement process transforms raw land into highly marketable, builder-ready projects
• Why national and regional homebuilders rely on entitled land to meet housing demand
• How entitlement strategies can deliver strong, risk-adjusted returns before construction even begins
• How our no-leverage fund provides significant upside potential with no UBIT in your self-directed IRA account
