STEP 2
Review the Phases and Components of the Search Process

We will also explain what can be controlled and what cannot be controlled in the sales environment – things like the market, product, promotion and price. We’ll explain the role affiliate professionals may have in the process. Next, we’ll discuss the role we will fill, and give you the options regarding budget, location, and other factors to choose from. You will also want to understand the obligations you take upon yourself as a buyer, and understand what you will need to do to get the best result through your search for the best land for your project.
