Development Valuations and Viability Studies by Nick French – ONLINE seminar on Monday 29 November

Real Estate Development

Development Valuations and Viability Studies

 

Development Appraisal is undertaken for two principal reasons:

  • To determine the value of land and/or buildings where development is likely to release latent value.
  • To determine the viability of a development in terms of profitability

 

In this lecture, the distinction between the two tasks will be clarified and discussed and all relevant mathematical models and techniques will be considered.

Course content

To be successful, the developer of commercial or residential property needs to understand all aspects of the property market and the construction cycles. In particular, there is an intrinsic link between the profitability of a development and the state of property investment market at the time of delivering the new building to the market.

This course aims to provide delegates with an understanding of the process by which developments are assessed from simple heuristic benchmarks through to detailed cash flows and viability studies with sensitivity analysis.  It looks at current market conditions and the uncertainties that arise from developing in a downturn.

 

This course will cover:

  • Residual Calculations for Development Valuations
  • Residual Calculations for Viability Studies (including Forecasting and Expectations)
  • Measures of profitability (including Scenario/Sensitivity Analysis)
