Pro Forma Analysis

CLG provides strategic pro forma analysis through our experienced team of financial consultants. A pro forma analysis is a financial projection that estimates the expected costs, revenues, and overall financial performance of a proposed development. In simple terms, it helps determine whether a project is financially viable by forecasting how much it will cost to build, how much it may generate in revenue, and what level of return can be expected over time.

With a clear understanding of land use regulations, entitlement timelines, and environmental requirements, we evaluate how regulatory constraints and approval pathways influence project costs, density assumptions, absorption schedules, and overall returns. Our team develops detailed financial models that account for development costs, entitlement timing, and market conditions to assess feasibility, entitlement risk exposure, and projected performance under varying development scenarios.

By integrating regulatory strategy with financial analysis, we help clients compare site configurations, optimize yield, and structure projects to maximize value while managing uncertainty in the pre-development phase. This disciplined approach provides stakeholders with clear, data-driven insight and supports informed investment decisions grounded in both policy realities and market fundamentals.
