GDV / Unit

Build Cost (Range)
£58.8M–£75.1M
Residual Land Value

GDV estimated from the HM Land Registry blended median of £270,000 plus a 5% new-build premium (assumed). At benchmark build costs, the implied residual land value is £10,078,000 (£21k/unit) after a 17.5% developer profit target. Calculate GDV

| Construction (32,640 sqm @ £2,050/sqm mid) | −£66.9M |
| Externals, fees & contingency | −£19.7M |

| Developer profit target (17.5% on GDV) | −£23.8M |
| Implied residual land value | £10.1M |
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.
