This module goes over the fourth stage of the development process in which building developers buy a building-ready property from land developers, construct a building, and then sell it to building operators or continue to the building operations stage themselves.

This module goes over the sixth stage of the development process in which building renovators buy properties which have substantial economic and/or physical depreciation and create value by fixing these deficiencies without changing the use, then repositioning and operating the properties until they are ready for redevelopment.

The module covers several key basic finance skills for developers including determining property value, estimating building and renovation costs, and assessing land value.

This module outlines the first stage of the development process in which land bankers acquire or hold undeveloped land until it becomes attractive for future development. It covers value creation, key players, critical tasks, controllable costs and major risks for this stage, as well as several real-world case studies.

This module outlines the third stage of the development process in which a land developer buys land with approvals and a master plan and then improves its value by constructing horizontal infrastructure such as roads and utilities to create building-ready pad sites or land bays for the vertical construction of buildings.

This module goes over the second stage of the development process in which land packagers buy or control undeveloped land and then increase its value through conceptual land planning, zoning changes, financing arrangements, or other “paper enhancements.”

This module provides an overview of the development process including a discussion of the complex responsibilities and tasks that developers do, the definition of real estate development as a value creation process, and a summary of the seven stages and eight tasks of the Real Estate Development Matrix.

This module outlines the seventh stage of the development process in which property redevelopers buy a property with serious physical or functional deficiencies, analyze the current and future market conditions to determine the best next use of the property, build support and then create an opportunity for land packagers to initiate the stages of the development process all over again.
