Carina Guzman, a real estate investor, land developer, creative project lead and coach, joins us to talk about land development strategies.

 

Carina Guzman is a Land Developer at @creative.dev.ventures and is an Ottawa Licensee with Feris Build Tech. In this episode, she shares her real estate journey all the way from househacking and renting out rooms to transit development and then land development. 

 

We dive deep into land developing strategies such as severances, upzone and sell and the whole process of upzone and sell: zoning, side plans and getting permits. 

 

We also talk about full construction, why they stopped doing it and how Carina de-risks her investors time and money into her projects by not going through the construction process and focussing on flipping the paper, what she means by flipping the paper, other opportunities to create a lot of value and how to buy correctly so there is only upside.

 

Furthermore we converse about working with the city, the importance of always being collaborative, how and why you should earn your reputation as a land developer and the importance of being proactive with neighbors.
