A connected way to investigate a site, explore building forms and understand the economics. Every stage brings the next decision into focus.
Begin with a Vancouver address. Bring together parcel context, zoning assumptions and development activity, then inspect the source behind the information.
Explore terraced, courtyard and point-tower forms in the public Concept Lab. Change dimensions and watch the floor area respond. The lab uses an illustrative parcel, separate from your site analysis.
Work through land, construction, fees and financing in your project workspace. Adjust assumptions and compare development scenarios within your plan’s allowances.
Turn the analysis into a preliminary feasibility memo. Keep the assumptions visible when discussing a site with partners and professional advisors.
The preliminary feasibility score combines six factors. Each figure carries a source state: confirmed, source known but unconfirmed, or estimated. Today, 0 of our 38 regulatory rules have passed human review. The score supports investigation; it does not establish what will be approved.
Margin, revenue-to-cost ratio and annualized ROI.
A per-zone rating; not a parcel approval assessment.
Your revenue assumption per square foot, not a comparable-sales feed.
Zone rating and OCP alignment where supplied.
Fees and construction costs relative to revenue.
Lot size and heritage or contamination flags you provide.
form.land currently covers the City of Vancouver — including local zoning designations, OCP policies, area plans, and the municipal fee schedule. Zoning inputs are inferred from public bylaws and should be independently verified against the current bylaw before you rely on them. Coverage of additional Metro Vancouver municipalities is on the roadmap.
The score is a preliminary screening tool, not an appraisal. It composites six weighted factors using publicly available municipal data, construction cost benchmarks, and market indicators, and depends on the assumptions available for the site. It has not been reviewed by a qualified professional. Always verify with professional advisors before making investment decisions.
Free mode gives you address lookup, a feasibility score, one scenario, and Form Agent. Pro mode unlocks the full three-scenario comparison, sensitivity tables, TDC per square foot, and a higher Form Agent allowance.
Yes. The three-scenario engine includes a Rental Focus scenario covering rental income projections and operating expense ratios once you enter a monthly rent assumption. Without a real rent input, NOI and debt-service coverage are withheld rather than estimated. We do not assess CMHC MLI Select eligibility — that is points-based on affordability, energy and accessibility commitments, so confirm it with CMHC or a licensed broker.
Building permits are read live from City of Vancouver Open Data on each request, so that view is current. Zoning rules, municipal fee schedules and construction cost benchmarks are versioned in the codebase and updated by hand — each carries the date it was last checked, shown on the figure itself. There is no automatic refresh for those, so treat the stamped date as the real currency of the number.
The PDF report is a feasibility memo covering the full cost stack, scoring breakdown, scenario comparisons, sensitivity analysis, and negotiation framework. It is a screening document, not an appraisal — no figure in it has been reviewed by a qualified professional, and it says so on the page.
