Indicative appraisals of the largest residential schemes in the Wolverhampton planning pipeline (all currently awaiting decision). These 3 schemes represent an estimated £29.4M in combined GDV across 162 units, with indicative capital stacks for each.

Residual Land Value

GDV estimated from the HM Land Registry blended median of £213,625 plus a 12.9% new-build premium (measured locally). 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 | £14.5M |
| Construction (4,080 sqm @ £2,150/sqm mid) | −£8.8M |
| Externals, fees & contingency | −£2.6M |

| Developer profit target (17.5% on GDV) | −£2.5M |
| 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 31-unit scheme in Wolverhampton, 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.
