Development Consultancy and Appraisals

With the aid of bespoke development software we are able to advise developers, housebuilders and landowners on the viability of potential development projects. We can therefore quickly establish the development viability of a scheme and provide development advice accordingly. With our market knowledge we can clearly advise on the end value of a development scheme as well as demonstrate our understanding of the other key components of a development including build costs, professional fees, finance costs, marketing costs and planning gain and of course developer profit.

Our understanding of development appraisals has been supplemented over the years by us being directly involved in a number of large scale development deals which have resulted in land being sold to the likes of Bovis Homes, Taylor Wimpey and David Wilson Homes. Having this in depth understanding of the development process and the negotiations involved has helped significantly in making our development appraisal work more robust.

We also represent landowners throughout the development process. Dealing with housebuilders and land promoters can be a daunting prospect so it is important that any landowner has experienced professional advice throughout any negotiations. This is an area we have many years of experience in and so we would be delighted to discuss the development potential of any clients land holdings in more detail to maximise the development value of your land assets.
