A WA valuer is using the residual (hypothetical development) method to value a development site. Which of the following is NOT a component of this method?

Correct Answer

C) The capitalised net rental income of the existing improvements on the site

The residual method calculates land value by deducting all development costs (construction, fees, finance, marketing) and developer's profit from the estimated gross realisation of the completed project. The capitalised net rental income of existing improvements is not a component — it belongs to the income capitalisation method.

Answer Options
A
Estimated gross realisation (total sales revenue of completed development)
B
Estimated development costs including construction, professional fees, and finance costs
C
The capitalised net rental income of the existing improvements on the site
D
Developer's profit margin and risk allowance
