Build with Confidence, Start with Certainty.
Before the first permit is pulled or the first dollar is spent, one question can shape the entire success of your real estate development:
Do you truly understand your site?
At O’Connell Development Group, we offer thorough Site Analysis, Environmental Studies, and Due Diligence services to uncover the real story behind your land. We help you see clearly, plan wisely, and move forward without costly surprises.
Why a Site Study Isn’t Optional
In development, the wrong assumptions can cost millions. Overlooked zoning issues, environmental flags, or legal entanglements can stall or sink a project altogether.
Our comprehensive assessments are designed to:
Identify hidden risks before they become roadblocks
Streamline approvals and permitting processes
Ensure environmental and regulatory compliance
Provide actionable insight to shape smarter development decisions

Our Site Analysis Services, Explained
1. Site Analysis
We provide a 360-degree view of your land’s physical and logistical viability. Our evaluations include:
Current zoning classifications and land-use permissions
Topography, slopes, and drainage that impact buildability
Availability of utilities, road access, and service infrastructure
Subsurface conditions affecting soil stability and foundations
This strategic review answers: What can I build here? And how feasible is it?


2. Environmental Studies
Environmental due diligence is no longer optional—it’s essential.
We conduct and coordinate:
Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments (ESA)
Reviews of floodplains, wetlands, endangered species
Analysis of soil and groundwater contamination
Stormwater impact and runoff modeling

Before acquisition or development, we help you verify:
Property title and ownership
Existence of easements, liens, or encumbrances
