The figures in the pinned footer that tell you whether to keep going.
The footer pinned to the bottom of the Feasibility step carries a verdict against your target and the three figures a developer or a lender looks at first.

Read the verdict badge

Read the three headline figures
"Profit after finance", then "Margin on cost" with the margin "on revenue" beneath it, then the land value at your target margin.
- 3
Read the land value (Pro)
The third figure is labelled "Land value at {n}% on cost": the land price at which the deal would just reach your target margin. On a Free account it shows a "Pro" button instead of a figure.
