A residual land-value model for the ALMA densification proposal. Adjust density and the affordable mix for Phase I and Phases II–III; land value is what remains after construction, urbanisation, the municipal cession and the developer's 25 % margin — blended across affordable and free-market product, at fixed sale prices and unit costs.

GFA ÷ developable land (2.46 km²). Uniform baseline = 0.39. Per-phase density (above) is GFA per m² of each phase's land allotment — matches the Excel model.
Municipal cession20 % of value
Aprovechamiento ceded to the city — Flavio model = 20 %. Statutory 10 % · stacked 30 %. Reduces developer-retained buildable value.
Parking provision · % of GFA40 %
Share of GFA built as underground parking @ €650/m². Default 40 % (typical) · adjust freely.

Extra spend on land-development works (% of urbanisation).
Assumptions: prices & build costs are fixed inputs (brief); the rest are editable. Sale prices are per m² útil (= 85% of GFA). Shared drivers sync with the city view.

Total intervention area = 4.73 M m² (473 ha). Uniform baseline 0.39 → 1.85 M m²e; proposal 0.80/1.05 → 4.62 M m²e. Construction incl. kitchen (no furniture) + pool. Margin on GDV. Edit any field to test sensitivity.

Infrastructure is a cost that adds up (urbanisation + networks + Junta fee + ESG on land dev) — it is not netted against the land value. Building construction (€0) is separate again.

Total development cost — by category
Every euro the developer spends (before profit & land). Grows with density — more GFA means more building and more infrastructure. Infrastructure = urbanisation + Junta + connecting, handed to the city.
Cost vs density — how development cost scales
Density on the x-axis (m²e per m² land) · cost on the y-axis. The dot marks the current blend. Holds mix & prices constant.
Per 100 m² of developable land — what you buy
One parcel normalised to 100 m². The land generates the gross buildability; the city takes its cession; you keep and sell only the rest. Then the money it makes, and how infrastructure cost compares to the residual land value — all per m².

Financing — two phased cashflows (3 phases × 3 yr)
As the Junta de Compensación we run the land development: urbanise each phase, then sell the serviced plots to a building developer. The building developer buys the serviced land, builds and sells the homes. Each phase runs 3 years, in sequence (build-out over 9 yr).
Serviced-land transfer price = residual land value + urbanisation spent · sales lag yr

The city's view
Fiscal balance & the infrastructure the city must fund — population & density, municipal tax vs expenditure, bus / tunnel / schools / health, and a density-based metro case, all on a dedicated page with data-visualisation infographics.
Method: residual land value = GDV (net of municipal cession) − construction (incl. parking + ESG) − urbanisation − Junta fee − developer margin (25 % of GDV), computed per phase and summed. Parameters from the ALMA NUP capstone brief (IE MRED): total intervention area 4.73 M m² = developable land 2,459,320 m² (52 %) + green reserve 2,274,740 m² (48 %). Density (GFA per m² of each phase's land allotment, phases 30 / 35 / 35 % of the total area) — matches the Excel Model. Proposal Phase I 0.80 / Phase II & III 1.05 → GFA 4.62 M m²e; uniform baseline 0.39 → 1.85 M m²e; NUP allows densification up to G+15 floors. Residential 85 % (affordable Phase I 50 %, Phase II & III 61 %), economic 15 %; cesiones to city = 20 % of value units. Prices and costs are working assumptions for this model, not appraised values. Uplift compares the proposal against the uniform baseline (0.39 · 50 % affordable · 10 % cession) — the value created by densifying & redistributing.
