What may be built on the site, and whether it pencils.The zoning read, the rule that binds, a test scheme and a live land value workbook.
Floor area binds, not height
| Lot | 21,000 SF |
| Buildable, FAR binds | 31,500 SF |
| Height would allow | 82,000 SF |
| Test scheme | 26 homes |
A demolition permit is applied for and not issued

The zoning read
What the code allows on the lot today: floor area ratio, height and setbacks, each with the rule it comes from.
- 02
The rule that binds
Height, setbacks and floor area each give a capacity; the smallest one wins and is named, so a scheme is never drawn to a limit that does not hold.
- 03
A test scheme
A scheme that fits the binding envelope, ready for your architect to test.
- 04
A workbook where the land value moves
Cost and revenue run to a residual land value in a workbook with live formulas: change an input and the land value moves.
- 05
What stands in the way
Permits and code cases on record come back with the study, so an open permit is known before the land meeting.
What the land is worth to a builder
Sales, less cost, finance and return, left for the land
A homebuilder wants this 64-acre parcel for lots. What is the land worth to them?
$11.9M left for the land
| Site | 64 acres |
| Use | Homebuilder lots |
| Gross sales | $145.2M |
| Residual to land | $11.9M |
| Unlevered return | 20.9% |
At the residual, the unlevered return is 20.9%
Residual to land · $11.9M · $145.2M of gross lot sales · Sales less cost, finance and return
A Titleman run on a real address, from the record. Not a client deal.
Run time: about 27 minutes · median of 76 production runs, 30 days to 18 October 2026.
Questions teams ask first
- What do we need to send?
- The address is enough to start. If a land broker sent a package, forward it with the address.
- How long does it take?
- About 27 minutes from the request to the delivered files: the median of 76 completed production runs in the 30 days to 18 October 2026, measured by one clock for every product.
- Is the same request answered the same way?
- Yes. The same feasibility request returns the same study for 30 days.
- Does it replace our architect or zoning counsel?
- No. It gives your team the first read on a site; the scheme goes to your architect and the zoning questions to your counsel.
- Where does the answer arrive?
- In the app, or by email: forward the deal to [email protected] and the files come back in the same thread, where your team can reply with a question or a change.
- Are our files used to train models?
- No. Your rent rolls, models and data rooms are used to answer your jobs and nothing else, and each firm’s data is kept apart from every other firm’s.
Feasibility
A feasibility read on every site your team is sent
Book a demo for your team. We map how sites reach your desk today, from land brokers to your own search, and agree which process moves first.
No trial: a pilot on agreed numbers, 14 days at most.
Titleman is not a broker, appraiser or law firm. A feasibility study is a draft for your team to review; the decision stays with your people.
