May be time has come for someone to introduce a cost plus model where all the various costs are well defined under various heads like cost of acquiring land,cost of construction ,expense incurred for sales and marketing ,etc. The builder then adds his profit margin say 20-30% and then arrives at the final figure that is presented to the prospective buyer. Since we are talking about innovation can some builder come out with this kind of transparent and win-win model?
