Part 1 takes a detailed look at the background to property development in the UK, discussing development routes, the players in the market, the property and investment markets. Part 2, Development Inception, explains how projects get off the ground. Part 3 looks at finance, in particular, retention financing, risk reduction, and tax. Part 4, Project Appraisal, presents the sometimes sophisticated nuts and bolts procedures that developers use in practice to assess project viability, including the basic, cash flow, accumulated cash flow and discounted cash flow appraisal models, pointing out their relative merits and sensitivity. Part 5 discusses project execution and Part 6 highlights the post-construction phase. Part 7 analyses the issue of risk in property development, how to identify and mitigate it using commonsense techniques. Finally, Part 8 describes real life case studies in depth to show how the process works in the real world, linking theory with practice.
