If you’re building or working in proptech, feasibility isn’t just finance — it’s a system problem.
You’re dealing with:
- time-series cash flows
- scenario simulation
- dependency-heavy inputs
- decision outputs (IRR, NPV, risk)
Here are the tools that actually matter 👇
1. Feasibility.pro
Use when: you need a real feasibility engine, not a spreadsheet
What it does well:
- IRR, NPV, cash flow modeling
- multi-scenario simulation (cost, time, pricing)
- live recalculation as inputs change
Why devs care:
- behaves like a system, not a file
- good for integrating feasibility into workflows
2. ARGUS Enterprise
Use when: you’re dealing with institutional/commercial assets
What it does well:
- lease modeling
- valuation
- portfolio-level analysis
Limitations:
not ideal for early-stage development feasibility
less flexible for scenario experimentation
3. EstateMaster
Use when: you want structured feasibility without building from scratch
What it does well:
- detailed development feasibility
- project comparison
- structured workflows
Feels like:
Excel, but more controlled
4. Procore
Use when: you need execution data (not feasibility itself)
What it does well:
- cost tracking
- project progress
- contract management
Important:
doesn’t calculate IRR/NPV
but provides real data that should feed feasibility models
5. Microsoft Excel
Use when: you’re prototyping or doing quick analysis
What it does well:
- full flexibility
- easy to start
Where it breaks:
- multi-scenario modeling
- version control
- scaling across projects
TL;DR for Developers
- Excel → flexible but fragile
- EstateMaster → structured but limited
- ARGUS → strong for valuation
- Procore → execution layer
- Feasibility.pro → closest to a feasibility system
Real Shift Happening
Feasibility is moving from:
Spreadsheets → Tools → Systems
If you’re building in proptech, feasibility should sit as a core computation layer, not a side document.
