And someone has to answer your construction related questions.

Question #2

In most t'internet build forums developers say 1/3 for the land, 1/3 for development & 1/3 for profit as a rough guide

I'm looking at 6 luxury flats 120 sq m - & similar in the area sell for £250k -but all build costs for flats propose a build cost of £1379 sq m which would give a sale price of £1.5 mil but construction costs of £992k leaving bugger all profit after infrastructure, utilities, finance, marketing etc costs are taken out

Would that £1379 sq m cost perchance include the cost of land?

Eeeh. You'll be chucking us retired contractors off next.

1. How do we fix it?

Pay someone who knows what they are doing

2. We need to re-roof the front of the house. You interested?

Likely not, seek a local builder & ask for some elemental cost prices for actual works in the area.

Well as a permie non IT person I come here for the entertainment of the flouncing posts.

I asked a "construction related question" and you can't answer it.
False advertising, if you ask me!
