A studio service
Real estate development pitch deck design for equity and JV partners.
A development deck is underwritten on execution risk. The equity partner is asking whether you can deliver this building on this budget and this schedule, and what they earn if you do. We design development decks that answer in order: the site, the entitlement position, the budget and draw schedule, the lease-up or sales plan, the capital stack and the returns to each party.
Investment
Three ways to raise.
Fixed price, fixed scope. Pick the tier that matches your raise — from a single deal deck to a full capital-raise kit.
Deal Deck
A polished deck for a single deal — you bring the numbers, we design them.

Investor Package
The full raise: we build and visualise the model, plus a teaser for the data room.
Priority · 4–5 business days
- 18–25 designed slides

- All source files + reusable fund template
N° 01What development decks get wrong
Four ways the partner passes.
01
Renders before risk
Three slides of architecture before the entitlement status reads as a developer who has not been through a planning fight. We put the entitlement and permitting position on slide three.
02
A budget without a contingency
Hard costs, soft costs, financing costs, contingency, and who carries the overrun. We design the budget as a table an investment committee can question line by line.
03
Returns without the timeline
Development returns are a function of time. We draw the schedule and the draw curve, and tie the IRR to it.
04
The JV terms in a footnote
Promote, preferred return, GP co-invest, control rights, the guarantee. Partners want these on one slide with the waterfall drawn.
N° 02Who this is for
Ground-up to repositioning.
01
Ground-up developers
Multifamily, mixed-use, industrial, build-to-rent. Land basis, entitlements, GMP status, lease-up.
02
Value-add and adaptive reuse
Where the business plan is the story: current NOI, the capex plan, the stabilised NOI, the exit.
03
Developers raising programmatic capital
A pipeline of projects rather than one: the platform, the track record of deliveries, the pipeline table.

Questions
The answers we give most often.
- What should a real estate development pitch deck include?
- Project summary, the site and the market, the program and design, entitlement and permitting status, development budget, schedule and draw, the lease-up or sales plan, sources and uses, the capital stack and JV terms, projected returns by party, the sponsor's delivery track record, and risks.
- How do you show returns to a JV partner?
- A sources-and-uses table, the waterfall as a tiered diagram, and a returns table by party at the base case with a sensitivity on cost, schedule and exit cap.
- Can you design from our architect's renders and our pro forma?
- Yes. We use your renders and drawings as they are and design everything around them. If you have no renders yet we work with massing diagrams and the site plan.
- How much does it cost?
- Deal Deck $1,250, Investor Package $2,500, Capital Raise Suite $4,000, as on the real estate pitch deck page. Feasibility studies, cost estimates and renders are not included.
- How long does it take?
- Five to seven business days for a Deal Deck from a finished pro forma, less on the priority tiers.
