40. Fees The fees may be assessed at 12.5% of costs to include architects’, structural engineers’ and quantity surveyors’ fees.

41. Gross Development Value 9,881,143 Building Cost 4,400,000 Fees 550,000 12.5%

42. Finance Charges An interest on the total building cost for half the building period. The total cumulative cost is represented by the S curve of construction cost over the building period. The fees are front ended, the interest is estimated as being on the total fee over ⅔ of the building period. The interest rate can be assessed as a margin (say 3%) over the BLR, currently 6.72% (Jun 2006)

45. Contingencies Depending on the nature of the project, the contract for construction and possible risk of variation of cost. Based on total cost of building, including external works and fees and interest charges say 0-3%

47. Letting fees Generally these are 10% of the initial rents but if there are joint agents, as on a larger scheme, they will operate jointly for a total fee of 15% of the rents. Advertising, depending on the project, is (say) a spot of 0.5-1.0% of the gross development value.
