The first step is to decide if you&#x27;re really interested in selling the land, since that&#x27;s the closest thing to &quot;exclusive rights&quot; for 25 years that most people have as a point of reference. Then decide if you&#x27;re better off selling the land, which you might be since a lessee can leave behind a toxic pit of hurt and your recourse will be squeezing blood from a stone while paying for  compliance.<p>The next step is rudimentary due diligence. Ask for a list of portfolio projects that demonstrate a track record of success with similar development projects. The thing to know is that you don&#x27;t want to deal with amateur developers or professional grifters (or amateur grifters for that matter).<p>Lastly (relative to before the beginning). If you decide you want to &quot;sell&quot;, talk to a real estate attorney...or rather your real estate attorney. Putting &quot;solar development&quot; on your land may not even be legal (though it might) and the terms offered by a &quot;solar developer&quot; may not be very good (though there&#x27;s a slim chance they are).<p>To put it another way, real estate development is about floating ideas and seeing what sticks and then it&#x27;s often a matter of being overly optimistic when spending other people&#x27;s money. To a first approximation, most real-estate development deals don&#x27;t happen.<p>Good luck.
