What is Landval Edge?

Landval is SDS's cloud-based land valuation software, used by Registered Providers, Local Authorities, and private developers to appraise sites before committing to acquisition. It models residual land value, build costs, and scheme viability in one place, so a valuation that used to take days happens in minutes.

What can Landval do for you?

Models residual land value against multiple scheme layouts

Test different unit mixes and layouts on the same site and see how each one changes the land value — without rebuilding the model from scratch for every option.

Builds in current build costs, grant, and sales assumptions

Keep cost, grant, and sales assumptions current across every valuation, so numbers reflect today’s market rather than a template built months ago.

Flags viability gaps before an offer is submitted

See where a scheme falls short of viability before committing to a site, not after.

Produces a shareable appraisal output for sign-off

Generate a clear, consistent output ready to circulate for internal or board sign-off, without reformatting the model into a separate document.

Manages roles, permissions, and stamp duty settings centrally

Control who can access and edit what, and keep stamp duty and regional tax settings current, without per-user manual configuration.

Who’s it for?
Land and development teams at Registered Providers and Local Authorities of any size, and private developers assessing sites for affordable and social housing schemes. Landval targets user-specified profit margins for private developers, and calculates residual land value for RPs and LAs — same underlying model, different lens.

FAQs

How is Landval different from doing this in a spreadsheet? Landval replaces manual spreadsheet modelling with a structured, repeatable valuation process built specifically for social housing land appraisal. It applies consistent assumptions across every site, removes the formula errors that come with ad hoc spreadsheets, and lets a team compare multiple scheme options on the same site without rebuilding the model each time.
Does Landval work for both new-build and existing-stock acquisitions? Yes. Landval values sites for new-build development and can also appraise the acquisition of existing stock, using the same residual valuation approach adjusted for the asset type.
Can Landval model different scheme layouts on the same site? Yes. Landval lets a team test multiple scheme layouts and unit mixes against the same site, comparing the resulting land value and viability side by side before deciding which option to pursue.
How long does it take to get a valuation out of Landval? A valuation that would take a team days to build in a spreadsheet typically takes hours in Landval once site data and assumptions are entered.
Does Landval connect to ProVal for a full appraisal? Landval's output is designed to feed into ProVal's development appraisal, so a scheme can move from site valuation through to full financial appraisal. This is at the moment a manual handoff, but Landval direct integration into ProVal is coming sooner than expected.
