Stephenson and Anderson will outline a Small Developer Boot Camp, organized by their organizations and held virtually from April 20 to June 29, 2021. The eleven-week Boot Camp gives participants an opportunity to apply training to their actual real estate development project. Participants will work through exercises like building and refining their pro forma, creating an investor proposal package, and drawing out the zoning parameters for their lot.
