Residual Land Value
Tight
GDV estimated from the HM Land Registry blended median of £195,500 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
| Gross Development Value | £38.2M |
| Construction (12,648 sqm @ £2,100/sqm mid) | −£26.6M |
| Externals, fees & contingency | −£7.8M |
| Finance (65% LTGDV, 24m) & sales costs | −£4.4M |
| Developer profit target (17.5% on GDV) | −£6.7M |
| Implied residual land value | Marginal |
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.

Broker insight: For a 11-unit scheme in Rochdale, we would typically structure senior debt at 60-65% LTGDV with mezzanine available to reduce equity to as little as 10%. Run an appraisal to model your returns.
