While there are risks in developing impacted land, there are also greater rewards, since the land can commonly be acquired at a discount.

WeMoveProperty, our sister company which facilitates transactions between land owners and developers, assists clients to find, assess, and cost-effectively develop impacted land. We are expert at matching the environmental remedy to the proposed end use.

• Such as, former landfills make ideal candidates to be developed into big-box store locations, with the landfill cap being integrated into the store's foundation
• The landfill can also deliver a "green resource" such as power and irrigation water

For example, we recently found an alternate use for a former refinery site owned by Valero. As a result of our work, the site is now being considered for use as an ethanol plant, which is a green alternative to conventional transportation fuels.

The schematic below shows how WeMoveProperty assists developer clients move back up the property conveyance value chain, and become more closely involved in assessing the supplies and opportunities in impacted raw land.
