In this YouTube short, Tommy Dobczyk highlights a largely overlooked real‑estate strategy: acquiring adjacent, long‑neglected private parcels—often the neighbor’s lot that has sat idle for decades—and consolidating them to build multifamily projects. By purchasing two, three, or four contiguous lots, developers can employ cross‑parcel building, which unlocks substantial development incentives ranging from $50,000 to $150,000 per unit. This approach leverages low‑cost land acquisition and government incentives to create high‑value multifamily housing.

We could buy 2, 3, 4 lots in a row and build multifamily and then get that incentive, $50,000 to $150,000 a unit, right?
