Quote from @Devin James: Gross Margin is an important calculation for developers/builders.Gross Margin = Gross Profit / RevenueWe shoot for a 20% gross margin on our New Construction HomesReal #’s:Home Sales Price: $374KClosing Cost: $18,700Cost of Construction: $258KLand Cost: $30KGross Profit = $67K$67K/$374K = 17.9% Gross MarginCame slightly short of our goal of 20%Homes Values and Build Costs are constantly fluctuatingI wish we had a crystal ball build larger homes. average new build in our market is 2200 square feet, 4 beds, 3 baths, 2 car garage and sells for 515k. construction costs lower if design is good and find the median or average home sale price and push that up. my guess is you built too small. 347k is cheap. we target 429-479k price range in columbus ohio for single family homes and also only purchase close to urban core where premiums are 20% higher and we build smaller like 1500 sq ft where price per square foot goes up. 

This is not uncommon and actual more typical as it is based on sales price and even though the first appraisal was $130k the new one gets reset based on its recent sale and home prices are not up 10% over a few months.You are going to have a hard time getting a lender to use other comps compared to this home as it recently sold.

Timelines, budgets, quality of finishes, they all need to go well for your exit and if your in bed with a GC that only cares about himself then all those things will not go right for you, but he'll still get his money.People really underestimate the following:1) The cash they need to close and carry the project2) How hard it is to have a GC stick to what they promise3) How long it may take to exit through a sale

Buyers usually want to purchase on today’s value while sellers often want to use future potential of the property (“current rents are below market” or “room to build an additional property”, etc) to increase the purchase price or likelihood of a sale.
