Land development
All building plots will have planning consent to construct a detached villa over 2 storeys. Each story is allocated a built area covering 25% of the total plot square footage meaning that a maximum permissable built area of 50% can be acheived over 2 floors.
Construction costs should be calculated at between 200 - 300 US$ / ft2 and the budget for architectural, engineering and project management services should be based on 10% of the construction costs. We recommend that you allow 2-3% for miscellaneouse costs.
In the face of current global market conditions, the average number of Cayman Land transactions for the first half of 2009 is actually higher than in 2008. It is anticipated this trend is set to accelerate as investors capitalize on these tax free real estate propositions as inflationary pressures continue to affect the US dollar.
A viable, and potentially lucrative opportunity to purchase freehold plots with planning consent for residential developments is now available to investors.
These building plots will be delivered with all communication and utility infrastructure in place, including roads, and electricity, giving owners the opportunity to develop their own bespoke luxury villas.
With no obligations to build in place, owners may elect to bank their land and realize their investment at a later date.
