The BUC standard
Show the evidence.
Label the judgement.
BUC evaluates a property as a complete purchase: the project, the specific unit, the contract and the capital required to make it usable.
No score replaces due diligence. The method exists to expose the questions, assumptions and trade-offs behind a recommendation.
Calculation
A result built from visible inputs that a reader can change or challenge.
BUC view
An editorial conclusion based on the evidence and clearly presented as judgement.
Six lenses
The project is only
the beginning.
Location
Current surroundings, access, view protection, seasonality, infrastructure and the location’s likely direction.
Developer
Corporate structure, track record, delivery evidence, current workload and who is responsible for this project.
Documents
Land, permit, seller, contract structure, unit description and the rights that can actually be registered.
Product
Architecture, layouts, finish, common areas, management model and whether the promised use is practical.
Economics
Total capital required, payment timing, operating costs, realistic rent, vacancy and a conservative net case.
Exit
Future supply, likely buyer pool, resale constraints and what could protect or weaken liquidity.
The weak case
Good decisions survive
less flattering assumptions.
We reduce rent, occupancy or resale optimism; add launch and recurring costs; extend the timeline; and ask what happens if the surrounding development arrives late.
A project does not need to win every scenario. It needs to remain understandable when the best case is removed.
