And interest on debt incurred to cover those costs and a profit margin attractive enough to convince some person or group of people to build it all up.

Yeah, people like this think the place to do business and all the utilities are just magically always there once the person or business buys the property! It's a shame some people have become this dumb. It boggles the mind that anyone could be that dumb and not have trouble feeding and clothing themselves!
