Join us on Monday, September 22, 2025, from 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM EDT for an insightful Lunch & Learn in Raleigh, North Carolina, hosted by Mattamy Homes.
Titled “How to Make Good Land Deals in the Midst of North Carolina’s Environmental Challenges,” this session will be led by Jim Spangler of Spangler Environmental. Jim will provide a practical, in-depth look at how environmental due diligence directly impacts land transactions and long-term project success in today’s market.
We’ll cover:

• The value of environmental constraints
• How to use environmental issues to widen your land prospect funnel
• Critical environmental issues in NC and their bottom-line impact:
– Wetlands and NC stream buffer rules
– Recognized environmental conditions in a Phase 1 ESA
– PFAS
– Federal and NC protected species
– Archaeological resources and cemeteries
• Using environmental due diligence as an asset builder
• Examples of data that can help avoid entitlement and construction problems later on
This session is designed to equip developers, builders, and industry professionals with actionable strategies for navigating North Carolina’s unique environmental landscape while protecting investments and identifying new opportunities.
