Building a new home can seem daunting but really it is very easy if you select the right builder. Selecting the right block of land can make a big difference.
Below are a few tips when selecting a block of land:
1. | Choose a block that is near level. Select a block of conventional shape with a wide frontage. |
2. | Consider aspect |
3. | Consider restrictive building covenants. |
4. | When constructing an investment property, don’t let emotion take control. Remember to only build what the rental market is looking for.This will then allow you to build a home that will always be in demand and increase the capital value for years to come. |
5. | Be aware of the extra site cost involved ie; extra footings, extra slab, concrete pumping etc. Make sure all these are included in the contract. |
6. | Allow up to 3-4 months building time. Settlement takes place approx 2 weeks after registration. |
7. | Read the inclusions in the contract. |
