Mohd Rashdan Bin Ibrahim
Founder & CEO, FeasiBuild
With over 30 years of experience structuring billions in real estate transactions across the Middle East and Southeast Asia, I built FeasiBuild to solve a problem I faced throughout my career: feasibility studies took too long, cost too much, and created barriers between great ideas and bankable projects.
From structuring a USD 100 million Shari'ah-compliant construction finance fund in Saudi Arabia to securing AED 150 million in financing for Dubai developments, I've navigated the complexities of institutional real estate finance across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman, Malaysia, and beyond.
FeasiBuild combines this deep institutional expertise with cutting-edge AI to make professional-grade feasibility studies accessible to developers, investors, and consultants worldwide—delivering in minutes what used to take weeks.

Why I Built FeasiBuild
"Throughout my 30-year career in real estate finance across the Middle East and Southeast Asia, I've witnessed firsthand how the industry operates. I've structured billion-dollar deals, led complex development projects, and built countless financial models for boards, investors, and lenders.
What became clear to me was this: the tools and methods we use for feasibility analysis haven't kept pace with the technology available today. Too often, I found myself rebuilding complex financial models to accommodate scenario changes—whether it was adjusting sales prices, testing different absorption rates, or stress-testing returns. This manual process was time-consuming and took away from higher-value strategic work.
I envisioned a solution: an AI-powered platform that could deliver institutional-grade feasibility studies instantly, while giving users the flexibility to run their own scenarios without compromising the integrity of the original analysis. I described it to colleagues as 'having an experienced finance professional available to run scenarios with you—anytime, anywhere.'
However, I quickly realized that generic AI solutions couldn't handle the precision and rigor required for institutional real estate finance. That challenge became the catalyst for FeasiBuild.
Having worked with major consultancy firms, valuation companies, and financial institutions across seven countries, I understood the market dynamics: smaller developers often faced prohibitive costs for professional feasibility studies, while larger players had the resources to commission multiple iterations. Meanwhile, the entire industry relied on manual processes that hadn't fundamentally changed in decades.
FeasiBuild changes that. It combines 30 years of institutional real estate finance expertise with cutting-edge AI to deliver professional-grade feasibility studies in minutes—not weeks. It's the tool I wish I'd had throughout my career, now available to developers, investors, and consultants worldwide."
