    Students will learn about and explore the differing factors that cause a developer or entity to select a site and a project. Through the review of several economic indicators, paired with specific factors relating to a proposed specific land use type, students will learn how to review demand and supply and draw a conclusion as to the viability of a proposed real estate development project. Furthermore, they will be able to describe a competitive market area, as well as the comparable properties as a result of their analysis. Conditions related to each asset class will be reviewed and discusses. Students will be able to describe the differing qualitative and quantitative metrics that allow a developer to make the decision to move forward with the acquisition of land to develop or redevelop a property.

    Students will navigate the real estate development process for new and rehabilitative properties by understanding the required infrastructure and the impact of the development on its environment. Students will be required to breakdown each component of the development process in an effort to build a land development and net operating pro forma, along with a total project sources and uses of funds. Over the period of the course, students will be required to research and analyze the factors required to complete a successful development program based upon site selection and constraints, acquisition price, permitting and successful development program based upon site selection and constraints, acquisition price, permitting and approval requirements and attracting investors and capital to fund the project that adequately cover the cost of the project development.
