3. **Site and entitlement context**: zoning, density, infrastructure, parking, stormwater, environmental or neighborhood considerations
4. **Operational durability**: property management needs, maintenance complexity, resident satisfaction, long-term asset stewardship
5. **Investment alignment**: Midwest orientation, long-term value, multifamily focus, disciplined execution, operations-backed ownership mindset
6. **Community impact**: placemaking, neighborhood integration, sustainability, local partnerships

3. **Resident-experience considerations**: Public factors that could matter for future residents.
4. **Diligence questions**: What to verify before a serious conversation.
