A financial feasibility analysis can help to identify whether your proposed development will be a financial success or a failure. It will highlight potential problems or risks you may face along the way enabling you to undertake sensitivity analysis to better understand the risks. This systematic method of taking into account all projected costs and income provides clear direction to ensure a successful financial outcome for a project.
The Financial Feasibility Stage 2: Applied course is run as a practical workshop. The course will take attendees through the practical application of financial feasibility to a selected site using the ARGUS EstateMaster software. Attendees will receive instruction from three experts as to how the information needed for a feasibility study can be derived. Attendees will source and input information into the ARGUS EstateMaster software on dwelling sizes, sales rates and construction costs.
The Stage 2 course is designed for those with intermediate industry experience,
with technical backgrounds who have some familiarity with the ARGUS EstateMaster software, or who have completed Financial Feasibility Stage
1: An Overview which provides an introduction to the software.
