Investment Property Databank IPD Home About IPD Portfolio Analysis Services Events Indices and Market Information Indices for Derivatives Online Services -- Home Company Overview Directors IPD Measurement Methods Locations Sponsors IPD Links IPD Awards FAQs Press Releases Contact Us Jobs at IPD Company Overview Until recently, IPD was run by a long-established management team, who held majority control in the equity of the business. The core of Directors - including co-founders Rupert Nabarro and Ian Cullen - have been with the company from start-up in 1985. The rest of the Board comprises respected experts in their fields, most with at least ten years' IPD experience. To guarantee its independence, the company is devoted exclusively to the objective measurement and analysis of property. It does not invest in the market, and does not offer any direct investment advice. Our headquarters and central processing facilities are in London. An all-graduate staff of over 100 includes economists, surveyors, statisticians and IT specialists, in teams dedicated to major business areas and clients groups. IPD services outside the British Isles are run in conjunction with partner organisations in each country. These arrangements are developed flexibly with local needs and conditions, sometimes through an existing professional or trade association, in other cases through joint-venture or subsidiary companies. Both in the UK and overseas, IPD's technical and product development are attuned to the needs of users through networks of expert and advisory groups. Continuous development ensures that our services stay at the forefront of technical advancement - in property measurement, in benchmark and index construction, and the electronic delivery of outputs. Our current initiatives include work on the standardisation of valuations and property data, the regulation of benchmark reporting, and higher-frequency data collection and reporting. 1 St. John's Lane London EC1M 4BL Tel: +44 (0)20 7336 9200 Fax: +44 (0)20 7336 9399 Privacy Policy | © 2005 IPD Ltd.

From lot(s) to acreage. Raw land is usually valued at a 90-120 day "quick sale" price to determine loan-to-value ratios. Nearly all building and development begins with the purchase of raw land. Yet in the current environment, many lending sources will not make loans on raw, undeveloped land. Unimproved land, or raw land, with no plans for improvement is the hardest type of property to secure a loan on because it is in essence a speculative investment. Raw land has no added improvements like sewers, utilities, streets or structures. A raw land loan will have higher down payment requirements and a higher interest rate than an improved property loan. Some lenders require a 50 percent down payment, but you should be able to find a lender that will only require a 20 percent down payment. A local lender that is familiar with the property will be more willing to work with you on the loan than a lender unfamiliar with the area.
