Q

How is GDV calculated?

A
  • At the date of valuation
  • Use plans and take check measurements
  • Assume present values and market conditions
  • Comparable method to establish rents and yields.
  • ARY used
  • Allow rent-free period/tenant’s incentives/void is appropriate.
  • Deduct purchaser’s costs for commercial property valuations.

If a scheme is low risk e.g. already sold or pre-let

27
Q

What happens to the percentage of profit required in risky market conditions?

  2. Construction - s curve interest taking half costs over length of build programme.
  3. Holding costs to cover voids until disposal - compound interest on straight line basis.
30
Q

What is the principle of there S curve when calculating finance required for the construction period?

A

It reflects the incidence of costs when monies are drawn down.

Payment of construction costs adopts the profile of an S curve over the length of the project.

Halve the interest that would be borrowed for all the construction period.

A

Sensitivity analysis

41
Q

What are the three forms of sensitivity analysis?

A
  1. Simple sensitivity analysis of key variables.
  2. Scenario analysis - development content/timing/costs such as phasing scheme or modifying design.
