Development Appraisal and Viability

Savills is a market leader in providing residential development advice.

How we can help you:

The viability of development has become increasingly challenged in recent times. Demonstrating viability through comprehensive and robust appraisal methodology supported by thorough due diligence and research is now more important than ever.

The Savills Housing team can provide clear and concise appraisals and valuations for a variety of purposes to assist in understanding the viability equation. With our specialist knowledge of affordable housing we are able to provide clarity through our approach to viability assessments of all kinds.

Our services include : 

  • Site appraisals and viability assessments
  • Development valuations
  • Accounts and loan valuations
  • Option appraisals and scenario testing, and;
  • Project business planning

We can advise on individual development projects, strategic land portfolios, large strategic development projects and regeneration proposals. 

We support our clients from the feasibility or tendering stage onwards.  For more complex projects much of our work evolves around the creation and provision of bespoke financial development models working with our clients to drive out their key performance measures.

 

Our Expertise:

Working for a wide range of clients, we have in depth understanding of valuing the wide range of affordable housing products based on 20 years of valuation experience,  complex projects including stock transfers, estate regeneration, extra care for the elderly, PFI/PPP, mixed use and mixed tenure projects, key-worker and student schemes.

The Savills Housing team act for all of the main developing Registered Providers in a variety of capacities but especially in their interaction with the private sector. We also act for Government organisations including the Homes and Communities Agency and Local Authorities.

Developers and Registered Providers operate in different ways. The Savills team has both the knowledge and experience of both sectors to assist in making projects work and achieving the objectives of both parties.
