In this short clip, Tommy Dobczyk critiques a land deal where a vacant yard is being valued primarily on its raw dirt value, suggesting the price is inflated. He notes the property’s zoning information and highlights that a proper underwriting would require detailed maps and a thorough highest‑and‑best‑use analysis. Tommy points out that the property’s best current use appears to be A1 light industrial, specifically a multi‑tenant trucking, trailer, and fleet storage yard. He also references needing additional information such as Blake’s Facebook profile and mentions a person named Amor, indicating a collaborative effort to gather data for a more accurate valuation.

Are you a land shark doing deals? And it's a vacant yard. So again, like they're basing it on raw dirt value. So keep going down.
We need Blake's Facebook too. Amor.
Keep going, keep going. It, it looks like it's got the zoning, but it's, it's got some issues. So, to underwrite this, a full, full out underwriting, I would think you're gonna need a map, right? So what do you got? Keep going down. You, you, you did the 5 highest and best use. That's good. It's got the A1 light industrial. It shows multi-tenant trucking trailer. Fleet Storage Yard. Good. Best overall use right now.
