How to assess commercial land
A site’s potential depends on permitted use, buildability, access, operator demand and the economic structure.

Planning
Check classification, zoning, principal and compatible uses, site coverage, buildability, setbacks and parking.
Access and visibility
Ingress and egress, turning movements, frontage and visibility from main roads can determine suitability.
Commercial environment
Competition, population, traffic, amenities and demand generators help determine which formats make sense.
Development cost
Infrastructure, utilities, earthworks, licences and construction must be included before setting the price.
Exit structure
Sale, lease, ground lease or turnkey development create different values and risks.
Conclusion
The analysis should lead to a clear decision: hold, invest, renegotiate, reposition, market or walk away. The more uncertainty removed before presenting the transaction, the lower the discount typically required by the market.
