This is a primary function of Estate Surveyors and Valuers in any project development. It is a pre-investment study which is very important to enable the client to decide whether “it can be done” ( feasibility studies).
Again, even if it can be done “should it be done?” ( viability studies). The Estate Surveyor is closer to the property market than anyone else and knows what scheme the market will accept for a particular location and at any point in time so that optimum gains can be realized.
