If they already own the properties next to you and need yours the price can be inflated a bit (don't get too greedy otherwise you get stranded with a practically unbuildable lot, +10% and all fees would be reasonable ask +25% and they probably walk).
The property V1029929 seems like a good deal at ~$100per buildable sqftage, the fact it's not sold leads me to believe the neighbors aren't interested in selling at all.

The lot size is 54X100. If FSR 2.5, buildable area should be about 13500 sq feet. Then I don't know what numbers to plug in to arrive at a reasonable asking price.
I realized that on 41st between Willow and Baillie streets, 5 properties were sold at $15750000, which means average about 3.15 mil per house.
There is also a residual method that I found on the net that shows how to calculate the amount that shows how much money the developer would be willing to pay to acquire the land. First, it estimates the gross revenue of all units sold. For a 5400 sq feet land and it could be converted to 6 storey building. I guess about 20 units could be built on this land. For an average price of $500000 per unit, the gross revenue could be 10 mil. If the developer pays 3 mil for my uncle's house plus about 1 mil of CAC to the city, then there would be 6 mil left for the building cost and the profit margin. Then, if the developer could acquire all 5 lots, I guess his profit could be over 10 mil for the whole project.
Based on the above really rough estimation. Is 3 mil asking price too much? His house is near 63rd and Cambie.
