Add Value to Your Existing Property by Subdividing

Across the last 50 years or so it seems that the changes in the property structure business have moved fast. In the Wellington region, which includes land in the Upper Hutt, Lower Hutt, Levin and Kapiti Coast regions there is a lot of talk in the media currently about a housing crisis. This simply means that there are a lot more people in the region than there used to be, and that finding property to buy is very competitive. At Tararua Surveyors we have the know how to enable you to be part of the housing crisis solution.

Land Development or Subdivision

If you are a landowner in the Wellington region that has a sizeable chunk, either laying empty or as part of your own residential tract, you may be in a great position to explore land development or subdivision. This means your property may be much more valuable than your current RV - if you are abe to package up that land that you don’t need into subdivided lots.

How Best to Capitalise

This can be an exciting proposition, however there are many points to consider and discoveries to be made before it’s possible to capitalise by subdividing, this is where Tararua Surveyors can be your best bet for land development projects.
