DDB Capital Underwrites Land Deals Without Betting on Rate Cuts

Alpharetta – November 06, 2026 -- DDB Capital Fund LLC underwrites residential land investments without assuming future interest-rate cuts, testing each acquisition price against supportable builder lot pricing, infrastructure costs and financing expenses.

DDB Capital tests land prices against what builders can pay for lots

The firm, which focuses on the Southeast within the broader Sun Belt region, requires a project to work under current financing assumptions. Rate relief is not part of the viability case.

Managing Director Derek Distenfield said, "Lower interest rates can improve a project's economics, but they don't fix an excessive land price." Any benefit from lower rates, he added, should widen the margin of safety rather than become the reason to buy.
