Q & A

What is the LCADP formula, and how does it help in studying a project?

The LCADP formula is a method used to study real estate projects quickly and effectively. It stands for Location, Concept, Accessibility, Developer, and Package. Each component helps identify key selling points of a project, which can be used to tailor communication with clients, such as in calls or WhatsApp messages.

Why is it important to understand the selling point of the location in a project?

Understanding the selling point of the location is crucial because it helps convey why the project is strategically situated. This could include proximity to landmarks, transportation hubs, or tourist areas. It helps clients visualize the advantages of living or investing in that location.

Can you provide an example of how location can be a selling point?

An example given is the Ning Swit investment project, which is located near a K landmark, within walking distance to two MRT stations, and close to UNESCO heritage areas and tourist spots. This combination of features makes the location highly attractive to potential buyers or investors.

What is meant by 'Concept' in the LCADP formula, and how does it attract clients?

The 'Concept' refers to the unique features and lifestyle offerings of a property. It could include aspects like low-density living, luxury amenities, or specialized services. For example, a low-density condo offers more privacy and fewer shared facilities, which is a selling point for potential buyers.

How does understanding the developer's reputation contribute to selling a project?

The developer's reputation, including their past projects and expertise, plays a key role in attracting clients. For instance, a developer known for successful ABNB projects or one with a strong track record in property management can reassure clients of the project's quality and potential return on investment.

What role does 'Accessibility' play in the LCADP formula, and how is it communicated to clients?

Accessibility refers to how easy it is to reach key amenities or transportation hubs from the project. When selling a project, you should communicate distances to places like MRT stations, airports, schools, or hospitals. For example, mentioning that a property is within walking distance to an MRT station can be a significant selling point.

What does the 'Package' component in the LCADP formula involve?

The 'Package' refers to the pricing and financial offers associated with the project, such as down payment requirements, monthly installments, and any special offers like zero down payment or fully furnished units. These financial incentives can significantly influence a client's decision.

Why is it important to know the monthly installment for a project, and how does it affect client communication?

Knowing the monthly installment helps clarify how affordable a property is for clients. It is important to communicate this because clients may have different expectations of what they can afford, and providing clear information on the monthly installment can avoid confusion or misconceptions.

How should you present the selling points when making a call or sending a WhatsApp message to a potential client?

You should focus on the key selling points identified through the LCADP formula. For example, highlight the location’s proximity to landmarks, the unique concept of the property, the developer's reputation, accessibility to transport, and any attractive financial packages. This structured approach makes the communication more engaging and relevant.

What steps should be taken when watching a project briefing to apply the LCADP formula effectively?

When watching a project briefing, you should take notes on each of the five LCADP components: Location, Concept, Accessibility, Developer, and Package. Write down the specific selling points for each category, and later, use this information to craft a compelling sales script that can be used in calls or follow-up messages with clients.
