ARGUS EstateMaster is a property development software that allows you to build and leverage feasibility templates to determine the viability of a development project.
With ARGUS EstateMaster, you can use a familiar spreadsheet interface to enter all your information such as land purchase price, professional costs, construction costs, revenue and many more.
From there, set up your preferences and view all the locked-down calculations that sit behind the cash flow analysis. ARGUS EstateMaster will then create a summary of project returns showing your stakeholders key performance indicators such as development margin, the internal rate of return (IRR) and residual land values. You can also model finance structures to support your financing.
For example, if your land acquisition cost increased by 5% or your construction costs were to decrease by 5%, you can quickly see how those changes will affect all your key performance indicators. You can also create probability profiles on project variables and run up to 2,000 simulations to derive a probability profile for your development margin and internal rate of return (IRR).
With ARGUS EstateMaster you can compare multiple development scenarios to determine the highest and best use for a development site. You can store up to 8 different feasibility options and then compare their costs, revenues and performance side by side to identify the optimal development scenario.
You will also be able to segregate stages of a project into their own separate feasibility, allowing you to view not only their performance but also their consolidated view as well.

ARGUS EstateMaster
While feasibility spreadsheet templates are popular among property developers due to their ease of use and familiarity, they carry inherent risks. Managing multiple versions, making formula modifications, and dealing with data entry errors can compromise the integrity of your models and have a direct impact on the accuracy of your final output.
With purpose-built property development and feasibility software like ARGUS EstateMaster, you can input extensive data to create a highly accurate feasibility assessment allowing you to make informed decisions.
