Solving The Most Time Consuming Component Of Property Development...
Finding And Stacking Deals
Like most developers, do you waste hours looking at properties, trying to figure out if they have any real potential? And when you think a property looks good, do you constantly second-guess yourself
wondering if you’ve missed something?
You’re not alone. I used to spend hours getting excited about potential properties – manually calculating figures – only to discover they never had a chance of working.
Or, by the time I was confident to move ahead with a property, someone else had already snapped it up. And I was left defeated and starting my search from scratch (again).
How I Find Development Opportunities Quickly And Easily
I got sick of wasting time looking for potential development properties online. So, I bought a bunch of expensive property development feasibility tools that promised to make the process faster. One cost a whopping $4000.
But they were all too complicated & had massive learning curves, and just slowed me down more.
Knowing a thing or TEN about spreadsheets (from all my university study), I took some advanced financial modelling courses and decided to create my own feasibility tools.
It took more than three years and 1500+ hours to get right. But the result is a tool that does all the hard work for you.
It allows you to ‘vet’ properties and find the best opportunities fast.

Why Do You Have Funding Table In [Smart] Property Development Feasibility Calculator?
In a nutshell, to make sure that we don't run out of money halfway through the project. That's the simplest answer. Lenders will always use one, but when we use it - we plan our development and our cash outflow, 1 step ahead.
If we have a table that lists all our project costs and we have the flexibility to ascertain if and what percentage of it will be funded, we can estimate the total cost, the bank is likely to consider for our project.
Which in turn will affect what we can borrow, which will have a direct impact on the amount of money that we need to have to do the project?
Important: The only way to maximize the return on your own money is by using as little as possible & completing your project as early as possible.

Simply Punch Some Basic Numbers Into The Smart Feasibility Calculator And In Seconds It Spits Out All The Answers Including…
Development Margin On Cost & Revenue
Feel confident in your business decisions.
Calculate potential profits more accurately & know exactly how much profit your development project will make on total project costs & total revenue.
The development margin is a fancy way of expressing how much money you're about to make on cost & revenue. SFC does exactly that; it calculates the development margin on cost and revenue separately and breaks it all down per unit & by area.
Return On Equity & Equity Multiple
Get a realistic estimate of the equity you need & know exactly what return you will make on your money.
You'll know exactly how much money to raise and for how long. Stop struggling and feeling overwhelmed - this calculation will light the way. It considers how much equity you need, for how long and what return you can enjoy on it for the duration of the project. Expressed using 2 distinct metrics, Return On Equity (ROE), Equity Multiple (EMx)
Sources & Uses
You, "What are sources & uses, never heard of it?"
Me, "What? Your high flying developer coach never mentioned this concept in the last course(s) you did?"
Let me explain
In any development feasibility calculation, your sources of funds must equal the total uses of funds. It's a high-level balance sheet of your feasibility template. You know the smart developers who build their own excel based calculators; this is where their calculations fall apart.
In other words, the total development costs of a project must equal the total debt + equity in the project. If sources of funds are not equal to uses of funds, you have allocated certain costs in the project but have not allocated either debt or equity to fund them. And that's a sure shot way to come undone in the middle of a project.
In SFC, we perform a check every time any calculation is updated. And if instead of the Green Dot 🟢, you see the Red Dot 🔴, it means that the calculations have gone wrong somewhere.
Hurdle Rate & Target Development Margin
Have you ever wanted to lock in a profit margin for yourself, even before starting a project?
Smart feasibility calculator allows you to do exactly that. This calculation shows you the residual value of land, based on a target development margin, aka hurdle rate, to ensure that you never pay more for land than it's worth.
SFC protects your development project by ensuring that, based on your assumptions of costs & the profit margin you wish to make, the land is NOT worth more than what you're paying for it.
Calculate the residual value of the land before you buy it to make sure you're getting a good deal. Never overpay for land again, and know exactly what a piece of land is worth before buying it.
Benchmark Construction Costs
Feel confident that you're making a smart investment.
Apart from the purchase price, nothing costs more than construction. This calculation shows you how much construction will cost in relation to all costs and the total end sales, so you can check your margins are within range and confirm the deal is worth pursuing.
Developers Equity Contribution & Debt
Make the smart decision and bring your project home with the right amount of resources.
The hardest thing to figure out in any development project is how much equity is needed to complete the project. Most seasoned developers do not have the necessary property development skills to do this calculation.
Get a precise equity figure in under 2 minutes & save time and money by not over-or underestimating your project costs.
SFC gives you this number based on your assumptions with the press of a button. So take the guesswork out of development & know you're making the right decision for your project.
Residential, Commercial Or Mixed Use
Get a more accurate estimate for your project and make the most informed decision possible for your development project.
Feel confident that you're making the right choice for your project and saving time and money using a professional calculator.
SFC is suitable for Residential, Commercial Or Mixed Use development projects. It allows you to calculate revenue and construction costs separately for your residential and commercial units. Both are inherently different and require a different calculation method to arrive at the end value.
Land Acquisition & Construction Loan
Your creative deal-making does not have to be a disadvantage when doing feasibility studies.
Take advantage of how you have structured your deal by using a different interest rate for your land acquisition loan & construction loan if required.
It is seldom that your project will move straight into construction post-closing or settlement in real life. Even if you have a construction loan approved, you will have a lag before the construction loan is released, subject to you getting your pre-sales.
SFC allows you to first settle on land using a land acquisition loan where you can use a different interest rate and then refinance it into a construction loan later down the track.
Contingency Scenarios & Sensitivity Analysis
See how your development project will fare in any situation.
Be prepared and protect your investment and ensure a healthy profit by mitigating risks and preparing for the worst. Sleep at night knowing everything about your project and feel confident in making decisions.
SFC shows you how the project's bottom line will be affected if things don't go exactly according to plan.
It shows you what happens to 5 different metrics if your assumed costs & sales increase or decrease:
1) Development's potential profit,
2) Development margin on cost,
3) Development margin on revenue,
4) Return on equity and
5) Residual value of land
By using these sensitivity tables, you can be prepared and see through the worst-case scenario beforehand. So when you move ahead with the project, you do so with a plan.
