Thanks Whatley,
there is more to come. If you have anything you want me to focus on, just ask.
I am not an expert in all phases of land development, but if you ask a specific question I promise to do my best to answer it, or find someone who can.

on an avrage what will a developer make as a percentage of the whole construction cost

As much as they can get!!
Actually that is tough question because how much the developer actually makes can vary greatly depending on how the deal is structured.
My best answer is this.
Most developers look to at least double their cash investment as a minimum.
And they look for the project as a whole to return 30% or more. (This gives some buffer if the project has some unforseen costs or market changes.)
I am confident many developers will read this and completely disagree with me, but that is my guess at the average.
