Help Analyze this Spec Home Deal. Good enough for funding?

I'm an experienced builder who lost a lot of money when I invested into restaurants.  Hard lessoned learned, stick to what you know.  I'm trying to get back to my first love of custom home building.  The market I'm in, Charlotte NC, is very hot for new homes.  I have a deal in which a land owner will put up the land, interest free, even take a second position in deal, he gets paid out when the project sells.  The subdivision is very nice, a recent new build that I'm basing my comps off of sold for $300k.

Lot: $48k - free and clear- owner putting it up.

Construction Costs- $180k for a 2200 sq ft bungalow, on slab foundation, with nice upgrades

City utilities and flat fully treed lot.

Total All in including the lot $228,000

Sales price - $300,000 on the low side.

4-5 month build time.

Does this deal make sense?
