Free Real Estate Development Feasibility Toolkit
Test the Development Before You Commit the Capital.
For developers and investors who need to understand total development cost, cost per square metre, financing, expected sales, profit, ROI and how many units must be sold to break even.
Use current land, construction, financing and selling-price assumptions. The output is an indicative commercial feasibility, not a formal valuation or quantity survey.
Property DevelopersScreen a scheme before committing land, consultants and construction capital.
Real Estate InvestorsCompare project cost, equity requirement and expected return.
LandownersTest development economics before entering a joint venture.
Project TeamsCompare base and downside assumptions before approval.
A complete development feasibility desk
From Land Acquisition to Gross Development Value.
Construction Cost
Base build cost, external works, fit-out, professional fees, contingency and cost per m².
Financing
Debt amount, equity requirement, interest period and arrangement fees.
Sales & GDV
Saleable units, average selling price, other income, selling cost and GDV per m².
Break-Even Units
See how many units must be sold before the development recovers its cost.
ROI & Margin
Profit, ROI on cost, return on investor equity and development margin.
Scenario Comparison
Stress-test cost increases and selling-price reductions before committing capital.
Investor Summary
Generate a clean one-page feasibility summary from the current assumptions.
Astute Real Estate Development Calculator
Test the Development Before You Commit the Capital.
Estimate total development cost, cost per square metre, financing cost, expected sales, gross development value, profit, ROI, margin and the number of units that must be sold to break even.
Whole-development feasibility
Build the complete cost and revenue picture.
Use current land, construction, professional, statutory, infrastructure, financing and sales assumptions. The result is an indicative commercial feasibility, not a formal valuation or quantity survey.
Development size & construction
Land & acquisition
Professional, statutory & development costs
Financing
Sales assumptions
Construction cost
Estimate construction cost and cost per square metre.
Development financing
Estimate debt, interest, finance fees and equity requirement.
This is a simple average-balance financing model for feasibility screening. Detailed project finance normally uses monthly cash flows and drawdown schedules.
Sales & gross development value
Estimate total expected sales and average value per square metre.
Break-even units
See how many units must be sold to recover total development cost.
ROI & development margin
Measure project profit against development cost and investor equity.
Scenario comparison
Compare base, downside and upside assumptions.
Change selling price, build cost and interest rate to see which assumptions threaten feasibility most.
Investor summary
Create a clean one-page feasibility summary from the current assumptions.
The PDF is intended as an indicative internal or investor working summary, not a valuation, investment memorandum or lender credit paper.

Why feasibility comes first
A Project Can Look Attractive Until the Full Cost Is Added.
Land price and construction cost are only part of the development equation. Professional fees, infrastructure, statutory costs, marketing, contingency and financing can materially change the economics.
The calculator brings those assumptions together so a developer can see whether expected sales still leave an acceptable profit and margin before capital is committed.
