Python Property Development Financial Model with Sensitivity Analysis
Scale Your Developments, Forecast with Precision—Effortlessly!
Empower your property development projects with the Python Property Development Financial Model with Sensitivity Analysis—a robust, ready-to-use Python tool crafted for developers, investors, and real estate analysts. Ditch manual spreadsheets and rigid enterprise software; model 40 variable inputs, simulate ramped sales, apply contingency buffers, and generate 5-year cashflow, multi-year balance sheets, and equity breakdowns all in one extensible script. This 5-year planning powerhouse turns complex scenarios into clear, actionable insights—no pricey subscriptions or steep learning curves required!
Key Features
- 5-Year Cashflow Projection: Pro-rated for partial years, with dynamic inflows (e.g., ramped sales 70/20/10 over 3 years), outflows (land, phased construction, interest accrual), net, and cumulative—prorated for start dates like 2025 Nov-Dec.
- Multi-Year Balance Sheet (5/10/15/20 Years): Auto-generated assets (held property depreciated over 20 years), liabilities (70% LTC debt repayment), equity, and net worth, with rental yields (4% default) post-stabilization.
- Finance/Equity Requirements: Total debt (LTC ratio 70%) and equity (peak cum low coverage), with auto-scaling construction costs ($300/sqm default) for GFA changes.
- Built-in IRR Calculation: Equity IRR on net cashflows (negatives as injections, positives as distributions), using numpy-financial—no manual formulas needed.
- Interest Rate Sensitivity: One-click table for rates 4-7%, showing IRR and equity impacts—spot risks like 23% IRR at 4% vs. 17.62% at 7%.
- Extensible for 40 Inputs: Core 12 defaults (e.g., gfa=10k sqm, price_per_sqm=800) + extras (professional fees to Year 1, contingency % on costs, marketing spread over sales, sales curve for ramps)—override via **kwargs.
- Pre-Configured & Dynamic: 2 files (model class, runner script) with 200+ formulas, sample data for a $10.2M scaled project, and one-click CSV exports for Excel.
Why Choose This Tool?
- Affordable Lifetime Access: One-time $199 purchase—scale unlimited projects without ongoing fees or software licenses.
- Tailored for Property Developers: Built on real benchmarks (80% sold during dev, 20% held, 5% yield, 70% LTC) with dev-specific features like phased costs and sales ramps.
- Visual & Insightful: Pandas tables for instant tables/charts; sensitivity for what-ifs—see IRR soar to 21.38% with a 4% rate or buffer equity to $4.31M.
- Scalable for Growth: Handles 5-20 years; extend for multi-phase projects or add monthly seasonality in the code.
- Offline & Secure: Pure Python—no cloud, add-ins, or data risks. Runs on any machine with Python 3.8+.
What’s Included
- property_model.py: Core class file with all logic, defaults, and extensibility for 40 inputs (200+ lines, fully commented).
- run_model.py: Runner script for custom inputs, table prints, IRR/sensitivity, and CSV exports (50 lines, easy edits).
- README.md: 10+ page guide with setup, code overview, input explanations, workflows, and FAQs.
- Quick Reference Guide.pdf: One-page cheat sheet for scenarios, KPIs (IRR, equity req), and troubleshooting.
- Sample CSVs: cashflow.csv and balance_sheet.csv from a scaled test run (ready for Excel charts).
How It Works
- Install & Run: Install Python 3.8+, pip install pandas numpy-financial, then python run_model.py—instant 5-year projections.
- Customize Inputs: Edit the model = PropertyDevelopmentModel(...) block (e.g., gfa=15000 for mega-project, contingency_pct=0.15 for aggressive buffer)—model auto-scales.
- Review Outputs: Dashboard-style prints for cashflow, balance sheet, equity, IRR; sensitivity table flags risks (e.g., 17.62% IRR at 7% rate).
- Run Scenarios: Tweak inputs (e.g., sales_curve=[0.8, 0.1, 0.1] for faster ramp) or rate loop—outputs refresh instantly.
- Analyze & Optimize: Use CSVs for Excel (pivot charts for IRR trends, variance to targets); flag issues like equity >$4M or IRR <12%.
- Scale & Share: Extend class for multi-site models, print tables, or share sanitized CSVs for investors.
System Requirements
- Python 3.8+ (free from python.org; Windows/Mac/Linux compatible).
- Libraries: pandas, numpy-financial (install via pip install pandas numpy-financial).
- File type: .py scripts (standard, non-macro for broad access).
- ~100KB file size—runs offline anywhere.
Customization Options
- Extend Forecasts: Add monthly sheets for seasonality (e.g., +20% summer sales) or roll to 10 years in the code.
- Advanced Sales Modeling: Incorporate unit sales or role-specific bonuses via custom curves in the sales_curve list.
- Extra Visuals: Build pivot charts for transaction metrics or add depreciation for CapEx in the balance sheet model.
- Integration Tweaks: Map custom data sources or automate imports with Pandas for historical actuals.
Perfect For
- Independent developers forecasting project feasibility.
- Real estate investors analyzing equity/debt stacks without accounting firms.
- Small dev teams optimizing sales ramps and contingency budgets.
- Entrepreneurs pitching financials to lenders or LPs.
