Abstract

Dick Dublin believes he has designed a townhouse development which will appeal to mobile young professionals. Dublin has removed some market risk by locking in a forward commitment for low interest rate loans for future purchasers at Grosvenor Park. The pricing strategy calculated to ensure a quick sell-out may be foiled by the expensive demands of the local planning department. Grosvenor Park is a good case study in residential project management, spanning the life cycle from pre-development to sell-out.
