Development Appraisals
We work with you to create development appraisal models that work for you.
Pointe Michel development appraisals are completely unique to your needs and can include bespoke affordable housing tenures and funding arrangements. We can also create long-term cashflows to see how rental tenures, shared ownership and mutual home ownership homes perform financially over the long-term.
Red Book Residential Valuations
We undertake housing valuations for all tenure types for both ‘Red Book’ and informal valuation purposes.
At Pointe Michel we provide Red Book and non-Red Book residential valuations for most purposes including for funding purposes. We also work with ethical lenders to value non-traditional properties.
Training Courses
Tailored to your needs
We run training sessions for organisations around development appraisals, community led housing and understanding affordable housing tenures. These sessions can be given face to face or online.
Testimonial
Michaela has helped us in Brighton & Hove Community Land Trust to work out financial viability for some of our key community led housing projects. She has also helped some of our local CLH groups to understand the wider context of housing affordability and how they need to think about their cohousing schemes in relation to planning and section 106 requirements. She has a fabulous range of skills, really good knowledge in this sector and is a great communicator, which is so important in working with community-led groups.Andrea Jones, Brighton & Hove Community Land Trust
We worked with Pointe Michel on a research project to create an affordable housing calculator as well as a few bespoke valuations for sites. From start to finish Pointe Michel navigated a line between friendly collaboration and a high level of professional competency. I'm trying to find ways to work with them again!Charlie Fisher
Very pleasant to work with. Listened and responded well to our brief. Completed iterations and improvements efficiently and in a timely manner. Showed thoughtfulness and creativity in troubleshooting specific issues and has given us a valuable tool to take forward into future project. Would certainly recommend to anyone.Andy
In respect to my dealings with Pointe Michel, the level of professionalism and approach to the ask was well executed. Not only did they have the right level of experience, they also stepped beyond scope to give a future view. I will definitely be working with them and recommend them.Yemi Fagbenro
