Suburban areas of Fuzhou city.
Area of Land Needed
The cost of land is about 39,000 USD/acre. The total area needed for the construction of 100 houses is approximately 30 acres. The total land cost is approximately 1,170,000 USD.
Housing Standard
Either one-floor or two-floor villas, that have a yard, and an interior that is unfinished throughout is the most desirable form of construction. The area of land for each house will have a footprint of about 0.12 to 0.16 of an acre (approx. 6970 ft2). The square footage of each house is about 200 m2 (approx. 2153 ft2).
Construction Cost Per House
Single level house = about 8,000 USDTwo Story house = 16,000 USD
These fees include:
- Labor
- Material
- Public Utlities
- Miscellaneous Costs
Landscaping Cost
Approximately 2% of the total construction cost.
Roads/Security System
Approximately 5% of the total construction cost.
Cost of Selling
Approximately 5% of the total construction cost (possibly only 2%).
- Fee for registering a company
- Promotional Fees
- Employees' Salary
Investor Profit
- Cost of house = {[(land sale price 39,000) × area (0.16)] + construction fee} = 6,240 + 16,000 = 22,240 USD
- Sale Price of each house = {(land sale price 10,000 for an area of 0.16) + house price (figuring only 90% of average market sale price of 320 USD/ sq m) × house area (200 sq m)} = 65,500 + 10,000 = 75,500 USD
Repayment Percentage
After Kinann Construction, Inc. has met the target goal and generated 3.5 Million USD, in contractual form. Investors and Kinann Construction will divide all net profits equitably. 15% in taxes needs to be paid to the Chinese government plus normal construction-related travel and lodging expenses for the principals. Return investment: approximately 1 year. PROFIT = [(Sale Price of each house) x (amount of houses we build (~100))] - (Total costs for construction, development) - (land) = 7,550,000 - 2,224,000 - 1,320,000 = 4,006,000 USD
Estimated Time Frame
The development and construction will commence within 3 weeks after the funding has been generated. Four to seven days will be needed to get the official government paperwork for the property indicating that development of the land may begin. It will take Kinann Construction, Inc. approximately 4 to 5 months to complete the first phase of the development. During construction we can commence sales, and it is anticipated from the typical sale and demand for housing of other existing projects in the area, that all units will be sold within a time period of 6 to 12 months.
