Simply complete the input boxes then click on calculate to view instant results. You can then go back and edit the initial information that you provided to compare different options and how they affect the profitability of the project.
Start by filling in the boxes to provide the quoting system with the following information:
Total Net Loan Amount Required - This is the total amount that you require to be released from the facility and includes the day one release to help with purchasing the site, plus all subsequent releases. Do not add in anything for interest charges, the calculator will do that.
Loan Term Required - In months, please enter the loan term required.
Land Cost or Residual Value - If the development site is being purchased please enter the purchase price. If it is already owned then please enter the residual value. That way you can determine if it is more profitable to develop the site yourself or simply sell it.
Stamp Duty - Please enter the amount of stamp duty that needs to be paid or taken into consideration. If you need to calculate the stamp duty then please click on the link to our stamp duty calculator.
Amount Available From Customer - How much cash do you intend to put into the development?
Total Build Cost - This box requires the total cost of the build and should include a total of all the project costs other than the cost of the land, stamp duty and finance costs. If you wish to break this down there is another section (other costs) where you can itemise different costs.
GRV Amount - What is the expected Gross Development Value once completed, or if planning to sell before completion, what is the value at the point of intended sale.
Initial Release (Prime Funding) - The development finance facility starts with the initial release. What funds are required for the initial loan release?
Interest calculated per annum or per month - By default this is set to per annum, but can be changed to monthly.
Interest Rate - By default set to 7% to provide interest calculations based on 7% per annum. This can be changed to the required interest rate or to provide comparisons.
Releases (when and how much) - Use this section to enter how much and when funds will be required. Interest is only charged on funds that have been released. Experiment by making changes to this section to see how changing the amounts and timings of releases affect the interest charges and profitability of the project.
The development finance quotation calculator will calculate the fees associated with development finance. This depends on the lender and if the Finance is from Tier 1, 2 or 3.
The main fees to consider are the facility fee, which is normally a percentage of the loan facility, and the exit fee, which, if charged, is either a percentage of the gross loan facility or the Gross Realisation Value (GRV).
Other standard fees are Valuation, Legal and Quantity Surveyor fees. These again vary from one lender to the next, so our calculator provides an estimate of these.
Facility Fee - This is set at 1% by default, but can be changed so that you can compare options.
Exit Fee - By default this is set at 1% of the gross loan facility by default, but can be changed to any percentage of the gross loan facility or the GRV. Please experiment to see how the different options compare, as can be quite significant!
Exit Fee - By default this is set at 1% of the gross loan facility by default, but can be changed to any percentage of the gross loan facility or the GRV. Please experiment to see how the different options compare, as can be quite significant!
To determine the development profit and return on investment, take into consideration all associated hard and soft costs. Populate here any other known associated costs are not included in the 'Total Build Cost' numbers.
Also take into consideration if the Margin or other Tax Scheme Applies.
