The total value of the development was €77.6 million on the open market. The housing units were sold at €45 million and the balance owing was €31.5 million. The developer was given a site, which was the value he took. It just so happens he was willing to take a site valued on the open market at €17.5 million but he was willing to take the gamble that the site would accumulate in value. The value agreed with the developer was €31.5 million.
