Land JV with Build-and-Sell Business Framework
1. Objective: The aim of this collaboration is to efficiently develop a residential property by leveraging the resources and expertise of accredited investors from various sectors (construction, design, building materials) and a reliable brokerage team to sell the property upon completion. All parties involved will share revenue based on the agreed value of products and services provided.
This is just an agreement template that could always be customized within the framework agreed by all the parties.
​
2. Key Participants:
-
Landowner: Contributes the residential lot as their investment into the joint venture.
-
Accredited Investors (iMIC Synergy):
-
Architect/Design Firm: Responsible for creating the architectural designs and overall aesthetic vision.
-
General Contractor: Manages the construction process, ensuring that the project is delivered on time and on budget.
-
Building Materials Suppliers: Provides construction materials (e.g., cement, tiles, fixtures) with cost-efficient, high-quality products.
-
Real Estate Broker: Tasked with marketing and selling the property immediately upon completion, utilizing their network to find buyers.
-
3. Phases of the Joint Venture:
Phase 1: Pre-Construction
-
Landowner and iMIC Synergy Investors sign a JV agreement defining roles, investment terms, and revenue-sharing model.
-
Architect/Design Firm develops the initial concept, including blueprints, 3D renderings, and specifications.
-
General Contractor and Building Materials Supplier provide cost estimates and project timelines for construction based on design.
-
Real Estate Broker begins pre-marketing the property to generate buyer interest.
Phase 2: Construction
-
General Contractor executes the construction, coordinating with Building Materials Suppliers to ensure timely delivery of resources.
-
Design Firm oversees the implementation of aesthetic elements and ensures the build adheres to approved plans.
-
Landowner monitors progress, ensuring the JV partners are working towards shared goals and within budget.
Phase 3: Sales & Handover
-
Real Estate Broker actively markets the completed property and engages buyers.
-
Once the property is sold, the proceeds are collected, and each participant receives their agreed-upon share of the revenue.
4. Revenue Sharing Model:
Revenue from the property sale will be distributed among the stakeholders based on the following framework:
-
Landowner: Receives a percentage of the sale as compensation for providing the land, typically a negotiated portion based on the land's valuation.
-
Architect/Design Firm: Receives a percentage based on their agreed service fees, calculated against the final sale value.
-
General Contractor: Earns a share based on construction costs plus a profit margin.
-
Building Materials Suppliers: Share revenue according to the value of the materials provided, with a percentage margin on top.
-
Real Estate Broker: Typically receives a standard commission (e.g., 5%) based on the sale price.
Each party’s percentage will be predefined and calculated based on the final sale price of the property.
5. Legal and Financial Structure:
-
The collaboration is formalized through a joint venture agreement outlining investment terms, roles, and revenue-sharing mechanisms.
-
A single-purpose company (SPC) or special-purpose vehicle (SPV) may be established to handle finances and contractual obligations.
6. Risk Management and Exit Strategy:
-
Each party bears responsibility only for their area of expertise. The landowner risks their lot, the contractor risks the quality and timeline of construction, while the broker and supplier are responsible for timely execution of their services.
-
An exit strategy must be discussed in case the property does not sell within a given timeframe. This may involve renting the property until a sale is viable or exploring alternative buyer options.
7. Final Deliverables:
Upon completion and sale:
-
The landowner gains a return on their land investment.
-
The Architect/Design Firm, Contractor, and Suppliers are compensated based on their contributions.
-
The broker finalizes the sale and receives commission based on the sale price.
This model provides a structured, equitable method for landowners and accredited investors to collaborate on developing and selling residential properties, ensuring all parties are compensated fairly for their contributions.
