GDV estimated from the HM Land Registry blended median of £190,000 plus a 5% new-build premium (assumed). At benchmark build costs and a 17.5% profit target, viability is tight - land would need to be secured well below prevailing values for this scheme to appraise. Calculate GDV

Broker insight: A scheme of this scale would typically attract competitive senior development finance at 60-65% LTGDV with mezzanine stretching to 85% LTGDV. Phased drawdowns reduce interest costs. Consider development exit finance to manage sales at your pace.
