Here's how you can calculate the asking price for the land:Estimate the value of the newly constructed home: This can be done by looking at comparable properties in the area and considering factors such as size, features, and market demand.Calculate the development cost: This will include expenses such as materials, labor, and any necessary permits or fees.Subtract the development cost from the estimated value of the home: This will give you the land value, which can then be used to determine the asking price for the land.For example:Estimated value of the newly constructed home: $500,000Development cost: $100,000Asking price for the land: $500,000 - $100,000 = $400,000I hope this helps!
