Create a status-based inventory

Define a renter seeking a new annual lease, then map comparable buildings by layout, parking and total monthly cost. Maintain separate records for an application, an approval, an issued building permit, visible construction and occupancy. Date every observation. Do not add those stages together as if each represented a different project or a certain delivery.

Connect records to the site

Use Pompano Beach planning staff and application materials to identify the relevant review pathway. Request case numbers, decision conditions and the approved use rather than relying on renderings. Confirm parcel zoning and land use, utility service and any offsite obligations. Ask whether a redevelopment-area designation changes the process; do not assume it supplies funding or authorizes the proposed building.

Underwrite competing arrival dates

Prepare scenarios in which comparable buildings open before, alongside or after the proposed rental. Test concessions, slower leasing and additional operating carry without asserting a particular outcome. Visit completed competitors and distinguish advertised rent from an executed lease. If feasibility depends on every competing project being delayed, the acquisition case is fragile. The useful deliverable is a dated delivery matrix linked to a leasing sensitivity, not a headline about transformation.
