Site Feasibility

Having analyzed over two million acres of property across North America, the Caribbean and South America, SRDC is adept at identifying property to fit your development needs. While every piece of land is unique, SRDC uses a systematic approach to screen properties for features or characteristics that may limit development or impact project schedules. Our site feasibility services include a preliminary assessment of permitting requirements.
