Purchaser Costs

Can someone please explain why in real estate development models Purchaser's Costs are deducted from the GDV to make the NDV. i.e. if the GDV is £53m the NDV is £50.6m after accounting for 6.4% of purchaser costs.

I appreciate that these costs account for SDLT and other costs but would these not be paid for by the buyer as opposed to the seller/developer? Cannot understand why these are included in the deal level cash flow. Any help would be welcomed!
